I’ve had several bread makers over the years and some make a better loaf than others. Not all machines are made equal!

Looks great, well done! Has anyone used a bread maker before? I quite fancy getting one, yeah it’s cheating as I should learn to make bread the Jenny way but it’s more for convenience than anything else. I love my soup maker and use it a lot this time of year alongside my slow cooker, they are the ...

Well, as they’ve added a to the title of the post, I think they might be digging a bunker!

Anyhow, clay is tough going. First of all, use some to make a wood fired clay oven. Another source of cooking.

There’s nowhere to run to. There’s nowhere to hide. The government would in all likelihood impose a travel ban so unless you have a yacht, you couldn’t get out of the country. I can see Edinburgh Castle from my window, it’s the natural aiming point for any missile coming in and Edinburgh is one of ...

Bought a small plastic 'greenhouse' so seeds now planted. Normally I just chuck everything into the raised beds but the soil is so wet, I am sure the seeds would just drown. Decided to get some chooks again. Not as big scale as before as that space in the garden now has a fruit cage on it. But a cou...

Longer term preps could include buying (new, charity shop, marketplace etc) clothes in future sizes and box them up. I know it might seem a while away but be prepared to potty train before the age of 3 (when it's often harder to do after then) so you are not reliant on nappies. With that in mind, bu...

Have a range of different routes to get from work to home so if the tubes are down you have ways of getting home. Have a range of routes to get out of London I'm a hurry if you need to. Make sure your everyday carry bag is legal but has useful items eg bottle of water, face mask/bandana, torch. Prep...

Thinking about the last post and the attitude to 'hoarding' food etc, how would anyone know? If your stocks are already good then each shop is updating your stocks which should look like a normal family shop. My shop is always big as I'm feeding 4 adults and shop every 2 weeks. Extra bits are just a...

Seen something similar to heat a greenhouse.

But can't remember where I saw it....may have been in a Permaculture magazine...sorry.
