    Core drilling into stone wall

    I need to make a 4" hole through a stone wall for a vent. Stone/ rubble wall is 2ft thick and probably a mish mash of all sorts of crap. Does anyone know if core drills can do it nicely? Need a long bit! - Possibly could drill from each side if a pilot hole

    Veolia Basalt Spreading to capture carbon?

    Apparently, Veolia is looking to start spreading basalt to capture carbon - has anyone been contacted by them about this?? I'd guess mostly up in the north and Scotland as that is where all of the basalt is, but guess they would need farmers' land to do so like some of the other companies are...

    Sheep bolus

    Looking at ordering some sheep bolus, tests show we're short on selenium and cobalt, the Mayo ones look good with 350mg of cobalt 100mg selenium, seen some others (g shepherd) at 1000mg cobalt and same selenium. How much cobalt does a ewe need?

    The french election

    Mrs. Czech was telling me that if in the first round (baring in mind there are 12 candidates) one candidate receives 30% or more of the vote, then there isn’t a second round🤔 I wonder when this last happened. I wonder, if, with the popularity of Macron, it will happen this month?
