You do in mine!
I have a woodstove which provides the heat in winter.
However, as I improve the insulation and draughtproofing, I'm finding the woodstove is too warm at the beginning and end of the heating season, so I will be installing a heat pump, probably next week.

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread VI
Bricking up basement windows is HARD! The stuff for 3 windows weighs a sixth of a ton, you're on your knees or your belly most of the time, and the previous job was a complete horlicks and needed a big clean out. Total pig getting the last brick in, and it was only on reviewing the video done by a p...

Re: Chaos in France
If the justice system is ineffective, i.e. not a sufficient deterrent compared to the benefits of crime, then things will continue to get worse. But try telling that to a bunch of former lawyers and finance wizzes-turned-politicians, who fly everywhere on private jets and have zero chance of being c...

Re: Millions of us might be **** if we ignore the Russian-Ukraine war
The West has been in this "nonsense situation", where the political control forbids the winning of wars, since the Iraq fiasco in 2003.
putin was and is rather relying on it. So is Xi.

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread VI
Of course. Scottsdale was my base, but we bimbled up to northern Arizona also. There were some airports that the Chief Pilot wouldn't let most instructors go to, such as Marble Canyon.

Re: Stiga ride on lawnmower
Your knees will thank you, as at your age will your heart. Keeling over whilst shoveling is not uncommon here. The ST224 has everything you need. Wheels are powered so no pushing. Heated handgrips. Lighting is fine for night work, even in blowing snow. Usually starts second pull, but if fuel is a bi...

Bloody dangerous being an MEI, if you have a big student who panics. I didn't get the rating, nor did many others.

Re: Stiga ride on lawnmower
I have the Husqvarna ST224 mini blower, can highly recommend it for paths, etc. It's 2 foot wide. Can also do the whole driveway, should your local farmer be indisposed. Collecting clippings. It's so windy here that long clippings blow away. I have a sweeper attachment for clearing clippings and lea...

Re: Stiga ride on lawnmower
This was my concern with the advertised power of the Stiga. I have used a blade on a tractor of similar power at my last house, and it is indeed difficult to shift more than a few inches. Fortunately my neighbour had a bigger tractor with a proper blower and was happy to do my driveway also. I now h...

Re: Stiga ride on lawnmower
Is a Husqvarna an option? They are very well regarded around here. I may get one as a replacement for my current John Deere. Do not get a John Deere! (mine came free with the house) I think the Husqvarna TS142 is the entry level, which I have had a look at at my local dealer. I think pretty much eve...

Welcome to 21st Century warfare.
Ground drones position themselves over Russian bunkers, and blow the roof off.
Air drones then dive inside.
