    Buying a fully electric used car

    What is the battery life? Looked at a few hybrids earlier this year and the lifespan was around 8 years. This would give us about 3 years remaining at our budget until the car would be BER. Would hope the fully electric would be better than that but worth digging in to

    Bare Ruined Choirs

    Popped in to the Weald and Downland museum about a year back and they fire a bread oven that way. Takes a surprising amount of material to keep it going and makes you realise just how important foresters and woodland workers were to everyday life. Apparently in France it was common for the...

    Help!

    Think this might be the same lathe under a different name https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285560969090?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=0psu1QJZTmG&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=_XwgzqajSc-&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

    Can I make all usual structures with just wood from my small woodland?

    Try to get hold of Ben Law if you can. Probably possible through his website or via the Permaculture magazine. Many years back I spent about 6 months part time working with him on a build and came away with loads of knowledge on what you are wanting to do. Seeing you are in Wales another...

    Back door steps

    Building regs suggest a riser of 150-170mm and a minimum tread depth (front to back as it were) of 280mm. You are about spot on for that

    Good boy looking for a home

    That sounds to me like you could give him a perfect home, with just the sort of understanding needed. I don't imagine you'd be much more than half an hour away from Stig ;)

    Things that "turn" up

    Richard Findley does quite a bit of this sort is stuff. If you can find some of his videos there's a lot of good information about glueing up multiple pieces for a project. Looks interesting and hope to see some finished pics

    What is a Tory?

    A quick check online shows that apparently the term Tory derives from an Irish word torai, meaning outlaw or robber!

    What is a Tory?

    It's strange, isn't it? We all live in the same, fairly small planet and bleed the same colour blood and yet we look for difference before similarity. Go figure :dunno: More on topic I seem to recall the term came from a political insult, you were a Whig or a Tory. Possibly 16th century...

    any idea?

    Cornus kousa or Chinese dogwood

    any idea?

    Definitely not arbutus fruits. They look familiar but I can't place them right at the moment
