The car has lasted 10 years so far and I don't want to get rid just yet, am hoping the car dealers will be desperate next year and I can get a bargain. The car has a flat so flat that I don't want to drive to the nearest garage to pump it up and I CBA getting the spare out. Much easier to buy a compressor - and not one of those poxy 12V ones, a proper one with a plug and everything. Arrived yesterday so not had time to play with it yet. Bought one with dust gun, gravity spray and tyre inflator attachments. Won't get used much but will hopefully last a long time and be well handy when required. Like I said in the OP, wanted for a long time but don't really need it!
Of course you need it, its a tool!
I only have two compressors, one for the workshop (plumbed in) and a portable 50L one for tyres etc.
I tell the wife off for all the cookware!

Chillis
Currently growing Prarie Fire, Apache and Demon Red in 6" pots on a south-east facing windowsill. When the sun is out, they get about 6 hours per day (7am - 1pm). Not sure if that's enough?
Bought the seeds on eBay, which people had harvested from their own plants. Planted the seeds 2nd week of April, which may have been too late? They're still just tiny seedlings.
I'll post an update, on how they do, in the autumn.Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.Comment

I've got about twenty chillis on the Prairie Fire. They are 2cm long and oval shaped. They start off pale green then turn orange and finally red. They are pretty fiery.
The Demon Red has about forty 1.5cm chillis, mostly still green but a few turning red. Not quite as hot as the Prairie Fire but still with a good kick.
I grew them in general purpose compost, and fed them Chilli Focus liquid feed.Last edited by DealorNoDeal; 15 October 2020, 08:25.Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.Comment
