    Why is [the rocket stove] unfinished?
    You know the insulating material? There's nothing on the top of it to stop it coming out, when I turn it upside down to get rid of the ash :o I've got a thin stainless steel doojimmy to put over it and seal it in place with fire cement, but I haven't cut it out yet :o

    Thinking of heading to London there but it states they make a tidy profit ... I want a good price for buying ....hmmmm , maybe I should buy one as a keep sake :)

    Wonder how many gold coins I could fit in me bra lol
    :rotfl:

    There's a lot of research to be done, obviously! But I do like the look of the Atkinsons website, the tone of the articles etc.

    That ATM for gold is hilarious. "Based on the spot price" :rotfl: yeah, and something that's sold at "spot price plus 300%" is still based on the spot price :T I love it!

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Great exam results! Well done!
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    It is brilliant.
    Am I allowed to say that? (I never got 80% at anything apart from a driving theory competition where the prize was sweeties!)

    Ahhh thanks everyone ... i studied hard for them but have to admit i was pleasantly surprised i had hoped for a pass but expected to scrape a pass so something must have stuck in my brain.

    I'm currently doing some mental health work its quite interesting stuff, stuff i have done before so finding its more a review type exercise but its good to know i have remembered stuff ... maybe my brain damage isnt that bad after all... it is i'm kidding myself on if i think it isnt lol ... ahhh well as long as the vital important stuff stays in i will do ok... might not be able to tie my shoes but should manage to save a life if i needed to so thats something :)
