I have a City & Guilds craft & Advanced Craft as my trade certificates :P which are as valuable as my 'O' levels in the modern world so won't disagree, in fact they've written quite a few contradictions there, along with a few fallacies. But the government commissioned the report and stuff like...

I read it last night when I was, so I totally agree :D Talking about Ph.D thesis's, did you ever come across the book by Dr richard potter, the biologist who grew the weed GW Pharma (or whatever they're called these days) use for their Sativex, I say book but it's his thesis for his doctorate...

Cooler here today, and home from an early start powered by Jet Fuel Apricot, back after lunch so a little pave to ease the new aches from the weekend, I'm giving it half hour from the pave and am going to saw some wood on't circular saw table in the shed as I can't work in it when it's hot and...

Medical cannabis and road safety A research report for the Department for Transport A little too long to quote so 'tl:dr' could apply, a 5 year old research document, the research is improving and although I see inaccuracies it's not that far off and I found it was an interesting read, makes...

I nipped home for my lunch from work on a mail check, had 2 varieties in 2 grinders, one of which is the JFA, I think I used the Wappa by mistake :P No mail though... And forgot to post this :D but am home again and having a try of the Blunicorn.

Morning :) the weekend's cycle adventures are todays aches and pains, and Jet Fuel Apricot appears to have been the answer AND my washing's hung out & the kitchen cleaned. Too soon to be excited waiting for the postie with my driving licence, (if I'm getting it back) but I'll have the phone on...

I 'understand' very little about electronics but that's a very high voltage & current and fun trying to read the schematic :D my cap drain stick has a 100r 10w resistor in it and wouldn't like your power filter caps at all. Meddling keeps me busy and you're never too old to learn stuff such as...

12.3v heater for the pentode and a cap to ground and I simply don't understand what appears to be the heater with a screen connection, and those diodes bottom right are interesting :) I had a bad Russian valve experience as in I bought what I thought were 3 x JJ El84's 2nd hand, cheap so...

I found the small bubbler that came with my Aris was easy to overfill and that would eventually cause combustion and it did the same on the whip of my Da Buddha, the ABV was noticeably different.

Thank you :) Valves aren't cheap but there's a company in Slovakia called JJ Electronics who make most of the common types, then there's a place in Russia who bought most of the brand names such as Mullard and make 're-issues' in an old plant in a place called Saratov who used to make them for...

I'm a meddler and build guitar amps as a hobby, clone circuits others have drawn, the wood came from a demolition job and I made a speaker cab and box for a bought amp, I didn't much like the amp so had a crack at making one but have now made 4 :)

Try hammering a screwdriver through the filter after draining the oil, makes loosening them much easier! I'm on the Blunicorn at the moment, also with a sore lower back from bad lifting form in the gym on Thursday but I've ridden bikes the last 2 days which hasn't helped recovery, and the bad...

Oops I lit it again... 🎶 :p

I'm just relating an old tale I was told regarding the cheese plant and am unsure on the characters as the details are hazy :p, it's it having come from a bag of Skunk no1 seeds was what got my interest! Years back we grew Greenhouse Cheese, it was the crop where I bought a carbon filter and...

1, An Amnesia Haze from a coffeeshop in Harlem in Holland, my forehead touched the table. 2, A Cannabis Cup entrant, a haze from Homegrown Fantaseeds, forget the name :D 3, LSD, a Barneys Farm plant I grew, skunk no1 x northern lights 5 x mazaar cross, the correct pheno gave purple buds that...
