Does she add pectolase? That prevents the murky look.Deeps wrote: ↑Fri Nov 30, 2018 7:37 pmWe've (well Her Maj has) been turning our bumper apple crop into apple wine. She tried it last last year and it wasn't a total success, a bit 'murky' but going for it again this year. Still got more apples to be sacrificed in a noble cause.

Congrats on the Mini-Prepper.Prepping_Al wrote: ↑Fri Nov 30, 2018 8:14 pm We are enjoying a prepper cake we made from a recipe I found on a Facebook prepping page. Dry fruit, tea and self raising flour. It makes a stodgy fruit cake quite tasty
Tomorrow was supposed to be a bookers run but as Mrs Al is booked in for mini me to be born early tomorrow that is in hold. We don't need to buy wanted to top up before his arrival just going to have to wait now.
Please post the cake recipe on the sub-board (if you get any free time )..... I'm always on the look out for good scan

Well it’s not just this week, I’m preparing my sprinter van for full time living in, hopefully moving into it in March next year, a bit extreme I know but I just can’t bring myself to pay hard earned money to a landlord, Vannie will be mine and in fact is actually bigger than the room I’m in.

Good luck with the van conversion.It is very do-able.There's a chap on the site where my brother lives who has a converted Sprinter.He even has a small woodburner too.Any ideas where you will site your van?

Good for you, DustyDog! Look at all that lovely insulation I think it's a great idea - it's the parking that's the issue, of course. I seem to remember conversations on here about quiet roads on industrial estates? People in the next village to me have done it, parked outside relatives' houses, and neighbours really get the hump. But its a pretty rich village, even for the area
For my own preps, I'm carrying on sawing away at the dratted cherry laurel at the bottom of my garden. It's taken 20 months to grow twelve feet so as well as lowering the height of the branches, I'm lowering the height of the "pollard point", if there is such a thing. Originally, that was about ten feet high. Now, its waist height. There's a layer at the back that I'll keep to about 8 feet high at pollard, to give privacy and security. Less obtrusive than a wall - its basically tree trunks, five inches thick. Cheaper too.
