Sounds interesting, empty propane cylinders are cheaply had, got photos?

Re: rocket stoves, I think the design with a separate bottom air intake is probably better than the one which has the air intake in the angled part.



This is the first one I made. The chimney is rather short, because it was a scrap I had leftover.



This is a larger one I made later.

If you do want to give this a try, be VERY careful cutting open a cylinder. Even an 'empty' cylinder probably has enough gas left in it to scatter bits of you over your back yard.

Edit 23 is probably how many meters pieces of somebody would fly if they cut open a gas cylinder without fully emptying it.

Well the Tories just passed a motion dismantling the parliamentary anti-corruption regime, in the interest of appealing to their core voters clearly Labour must follow.

Yeah, but that was (disgracefully) a relatively obscure fact. Everyone knows the government killed 100,000 people now and no one gives a poo poo.

I would disagree that everyone knows that. Everyone (well at least 40% of the country and the entire shadow cabinet) think the poor old Government have done the best they can despite all those meanies saying otherwise, because this has been all the mainstream press coverage has had to say for the last 18 months.

In fact I'd say the 120k austerity deaths figure was better known in 2015/16 and the 100k+ excess covid deaths figure is now because people have been impacted by the anti-covid measures, as late and ineffective as they were, so people feel like the government has done all it can and the counter-narrative doesn't get any traction outside of a few selected stories about dodgy PPE contracts which people can safely write off as mistakes being made in a time of national crisis. The austerity deaths number *was* covered but for the chattering classes the limits of the effects were there local library and swimming pool being closed down, but they never used those anyway because they were full of *those people*.

Of course the press - even without the Corbyn bogeyman forcing them to - are in full ride or die mode to protect Johnson at all costs because he's one of their own in a way Cameron and May never were. I guarantee just about every opinion columnist and senior journo in the country has met Johnson multiple times at various wine and cheese affairs (and weird masked parties) so they refuse to lay the blame for any of it at his feet because doing so would be to admit that their circle of chums might not be the smartest and best people in the room and they will protect that perception from the slings and arrows of people with Palestinian flags in their screen names at all costs. Look at the Owen Paterson story - the edict to protect him and subsequent u-turn must have come from No. 10 and even the worst criticism was that Johnson was somehow not in full control.

At least if Corbyn was still LOTO there would be *some* criticism of Johnson in the press even if it was in the form of "Corbyn thinks that Johnson should say sorry for letting everybody's granny die, and yet Corbyn personally strangled every Jewish person in the country". Even if he was minded to do so Starmer can't lay a glove on Johnson because he can be safely completely ignored by the entire press.

It was tough in the trenches wasn't it pal? I know how you feel. With the gas and the bullets coming over. I remember we were getting a helicopter out from a mission one time and my mate, who we all thought was dead, came running out of the woods with Germans chasing after him, shot full of bullets. He fell to his knees as we flew over him. I'll never forget his face. He'd be proud to see you in that jacket today, proper respectful. Anyway, I'm off in to get some fanta so you stay strong for all the other boys out there. I'd put 20p in your pot but I left my wallet in the car.

Just seen a big brawl between Russian seperatists and Ukrainian nationalists in the street. Brutal as gently caress. Wish I had my camera cos in all my days of anti fascism in the U.K. I’ve never seen such a large sudden and brutal eruption of violence. Absolutely mad. There are no good guys here either. The Russian seperatists are pro putin and the Ukrainians are nationalists. What a mess.
