I cook my rice in the microwave. Cover rice with 1/2” of water and cook on full for 7 minutes. Add more water to just come to the top of the rice and cook for another 7 minutes. Perfect rice every time.

Put green poles in ground put blue pipe over them. Cross them for a sturdy structure. Cut rings of blue pipe about 1 inch. Make a slit to split them this then becomes grippers to go over net and clip onto pipe. Keeps them tight.

Cutting the blue pipe to make clips is a genius move. I'll be stealing that!

Kind of cute........it looked like a play pen....for the plants.😂

Made me laugh Tony I am exactly the same in the garden. Fffing and Geffing

The plastic thingies, poles and netting might be a good way to protect sweetcorn from wind. Might need to double up the netting or use a different material.

This made me chuckle from beginning to end. 😂

Tony it's one of those days we all have them. You did make me laugh.

I used bits of old hose pipes, cut into about 2/3 inch strips, then cut down one side to allow them to be pushed over the mesh, onto blue pipe, does exactly the same thing 😊

Thanks for the Detroit shout-out! I was out longer than I should've been and got a red-hot sunburn. Hilarious video 🤣

Have perfect rice now, bring it to the boil, boil 6 to 10 minutes, then turn off leave in water for 6 to 10 minutes or more for brown.

Am I watching a Charlie Chaplin movie?

I second a rice cooker. I've fallen asleep while cooking rice. I had the same result Tony.

GROWING SALAD VEG IN TIN BATH HOWDO ISTOP SLUGS BY ELECTRIFYING BATH

Not burnt Tony its caramelised 😄loved the speeded up bit like skip day, Steve

Instant pot is the easiest for rice cooking

You are the perfect antidote to a crappy day! 😂

Lol. Last of the Summer Wine springs to mind. Lol

just use the blue pipes as in bed behind you then cove with micro mesh so easy and quick 😊

If you use hoops snd want to secure netting. Cut down some of your hoop plastic into 2" lengths, cut each one open in ine side, that will slip over your pipe and netting like thd vlips, its really good, diesng come loose, holds the netting in place really well. This is ehat we do on our hoops

Hi Tony, first tunnels have steel cloche hoops for raised beds. They are very good. I bought some last year & work well. I use the black clips to hold in place around the beds, too, from amazon. Great video thanks for sharing and take care 😊

Thank you so much for making my day incredible to find out we all have those days on the plot ...my plot is called "lost the plot" incredible 👏 more please 😊

those clips are an absolute wast of time, we’ve got the tee shirt to prove it. old fashioned bulldog clips are better.

Hi Tony you need to say in kitchen when cooking .

1:00 loudest "DO" ever 😂

hahaha! That was class. I am so like that effing and blinding when trying to find netting solutions to protect my crops, from the pests and roaming beasties, I am sure veg gardeners everywhere have been there. I too hate the faffing I know @naturallyJB had also posted about this too. So you are not alone Tony. Although I have loads of those green supports and those clips look a lot easier to deal with for my cat protection netting for early plants going in, so it wasn't all bad. ☺☺😁

That was hilarious. The effing and jeffing just to cover a small bed with mesh. Im not sure I even know what you sowed! Great video.

Carrots a week ago

You need to build one like Mark has got with the hinged hoop be lot easyer lol

🐝Thanks for the great video🌻 Call for a car?!! THOSE it come in a cardboard box? 🤣

😂😂😂 you have made my day!! I’ve had exactly the same morning I gave up in the end the air was blue and I broke canes , put my foot through the netting and fell in the bloody pond 😂I can laugh now , not so much at the time 😂 xxx

😂😂😂

ayyy you crack me up fella , did it, stood back n laughs at it. like 'oh why have i done this'

Oh well, it seemed like a good idea at the time !

I cook my rice in salted water for a couple of minutes. Then put it in a stainless steel strainer and steam it over water. Best over,

Tony, I know it is another gadget but the Aldi rice cooker is wonderful as it does many other dishes as well as settings for white and brown rice.

We've all had those days! The brilliant idea turns out to be rubbish. The creative artistry looks naff. We get clumsier with every realisation that it's not gonna work. Solution. Simple is best. Cup of coffee. ... ps. How did Mrs Smith take The Great Northeastern Rice Fire?😂❤❤ Yes I've done that too

Elf n safety video 😂

Your a good sport Tony, you had me in stitches.

Had such a laugh!!!

Brilliant gave me a good laugh Tony 😂😂

Eeeh Tony, u have made me laugh out loud with this video! All that faffing about whilst muttering away. We've all been there 😁🌱

looks bob on in the end , given me an idea

TA DA 😃😂👍

Nothing worse than the smell of burnt rice, have done them same.

Hilarious! I haven’t laughed so much in a while!

Oh Tony you made me laugh I needed it take care❤

Pegs from the village hardware store Tony… wooden and last years 🎉

Even with your DIY skills,, maybe you should have watched Mark's vlog about building the hinged lid for his carrots as well of how he's sown his carrots 😂😂

tony you got to work smarter not harder lol

😂

Language Timothy, one of those days, at least you got a video out of it plus a few more views to help with the algorithm.

😂😂😂😂 Oh this made my day 😂😂😂😂x

Some days it's just better to stay in bed! We would have missed a load of laughs though so I'm glad you didn't 😂😂 maybe a salad tonight. ...

You should have stayed in bed Tony😂😂😂
