Large Glass Jars - screw top
Originally posted on the wrong section: I'm looking to get a couple of large glass jars - the ones with the two part screw lids, sometimes called Mason or Ball Mason jars. Has anyone come across a cheap source for these in the UK? I've seen some Kilner ones at £9 for three in John Lewis (1 litre) but I was hoping for 1.5…

Food processor for pastry and nut/date mixes
I would like a food processor for pastry and making date/nut bars. I don't expect the pastry to come out like puff pastry, but if I could make decent multi-purpose pastry easily that would help. I eat a lot of date/nut bars, and would like to be able to make my own. Which I read is a matter of grinding the nuts and then…

Best shaver
Hello! What is the best shaver I could get? DE razors nick me and bleed my skin. I tried one Panasonic Foil shaver and it didn't cut at all. I know have a Philips rotary and it's the best I have got, but it is very slow and needs several passes from the same point, although it doesn't bleed and it doesn't cause irritation!…

Need to buy a McKenzie sportline bicycle wheel
I have spent several hours over the past few days to find a back wheel for a McKenzie sportline bicycle. This was a gift passed to me as my bike has been stolen.
