Powerchair users
I wondered if anyone with a powerchair would be willing to disclose which drive wheel configuration they prefer, and why? I am leaning towards a rear wheel configuration, but can see the advantages to both mid and front wheel drive. The Quickie Q700 R is top of my wish list, but why are they so damned expensive?

Accessible/affordable garden fire pits
Does anyone else have/enjoy fire pits? Mine's a truck brake drum. Lay it on its side on top of a pile of bricks 3 high. Put a motorbike brake disc across the gap and you've got a cheap, versatile fire pit that's easy to use/empty and hasn't needed maintenance in 20 years. Cheap parts from a scrap yard, what's not to like?ā¦

Language; terminology; I have a question.
A public and government funded service (public but not in health care area), offers discounts to people "in need". My quotation marks. They use this phrase a few times in their publicity and yet they don't say who is eligible so it sounds very arbitrary. I queried it with them, they missed the point but that was theā¦
