Agreed it would be nigh on impossible to remove the plasterboard without damage but in all honesty I'd cut out a "doorway" and create a door or hatch using mdf held in place by magnetic clips or buttons ( a sort of timber clip rather than those round things on your jacket) and painted in w...

On the surface it sounds an attractive idea , who wouldn't want to be the Lord of their own castle? However, as others have said it takes numbers to protect a castle and I'd have serious doubts as to whether it would be possible to produce enough food within those castle walls . Another thing to con...

Can you post a pic of the under stair area I can't visualise where the plasterboard wall you want to move is, in other words is that area already blocked off and inaccessible or not. I have a lot of experience in this subject ;) If I'm reading the description correctly I would say that there is a t...

The trees always seem to have a lot although maybe just a few less this year but still pretty abundant . I picked about a carrier bag full and we...

This is how I did things when I first started work. I was paid weekly but drew money monthly so in effect four weeks wages. Firstly I paid mother my board and then put aside a bit less than one weeks money to act as a float for everyday expenses. Thus there was always two weeks money put aside in a ...

Just bought some powdered peanut butter (from Sainsburys). Rather expensive, but will last longer than the oil ones. That's a new one on me , not heard of it before. What do you mix it with to reconstitute , I'm presuming oil rather than water? How's the taste once made up in comparison to "re...
