- To save a journey to the post office, I want to help my postman out, and the delivery van drivers when I have ordered something online and have a package on its way to me.

A majestic film. Again the filming quality is top draw. Colour, picture and sound are done perfectly and highly professional. It's a honour to watch your film making.
Loved this and I totally get the sentiment of keeping your heart & soul in the Country wherever you are 🙏🏻💚
Love the old sock idea. I have quite a few that just sit around in a draw. Will take them to the garden and use for my linseed. Make sure those cows don't dirty the kitchen floor.
Just a note for you Richard...move your bay tree to the back garden as the leaves will be contaminated by car fumes...that's if you intend to use any fresh or dried leaves from the tree in the future!
@@BoninBrighton Do you know the reason? He has been kind enough to reply to most of mine.
@@BoninBrighton Thanks, no point in sending any more comments then. I didn't know about the podcast. I would have thought reading and replying to some comments is part of the deal even if some suggestions cause a bit of needle at times.
@@stephengraham5099 I still read the comments and pass on any relevant info. i will let him know about the bay tree thank you so much 😄
@@JuliaHartley Julia, Moonshayde made the comment about the tree, but good to know you are reading the comments.
@moonshayde I've passed on the suggestion about the bay tree and it is being moved, thanks lovely 😁
You might not live in the country but your kitchen is certainly one that would not be out of place in a country cottage. Lovely array of jars. Elizabeth David also writes beautiful cook books.
John Seymour's' books on small holdings from the sixties are nicely illustrated old style farming. Cheers from Tasmania old bean.
I also have a copy of Dorothy Hartley's book. Makes good reading on a dark winter's evening but make sure you have had dinner. It's a bit like not food shoppng when you are hungry !
Hi Richard, really loving these videos, I find you so refreshing, love your honesty! How nice to get some bay leaves & tree given to you, very thoughtful, they certainly enhance the flavour, I add some to all my soups, pasta sauces etc. they are wonderful. Thank you for sharing, take really good care, stay well. Much love Kathy x (Ontario, Canada)
Food in England, a classic. The delightful Lucy Worsley made a documentary about it a few years ago. It is on youtube. Sorry I'm not computer savvy enough to provide a link.
0:58 - brace for impact! I guessed it was coming. Great video Richard!
Lovely video. Thanks.
I made a post box with a hinged lid that I screwed to the wall.I leave an opened padlock inside which the postman uses to secure it with.I am about to make a larger one with some scrap wood I have scrounged from here and there.
Well impressed with your jig sawing skills.Very fix it with Vobes!!!!!!!
Thanks for the tips on cooking beans etc as I normally buy them from a tin. Enjoyable video
Very interesting video as usual Richard. I'm particularly interested in the whole foods plant based meals, and agree that a coconut based curry is yummy! Not sure if it will be the same for you but when I started eating more plant based, non processed foods I had so much more energy and felt much better.Your videos are nostalgic and bring it home to me that modern society not only buys too much we put too much emphasis on material things..maybe that would be a good topic for one of your next lives if not already done! Sorry for the essay as usual.🤣🤣
Nice work old boy, your re-cycling skills are a splended thing to watch, love the channel
Great video - nice mix of items. 👍
O here you go again I would love to be able to grow a bay tree. We use them in our cooking they impart a subtle flavor. Lovely.
Good job. Well done that man. Good to see you sorting little jobs like this. They make interesting viewing.
That's a very good idea for the post Richard. Just to let you know if you don't already? My Mrs informs me that you need to boil kidney beans for about 25 minutes before consumption otherwise they are toxic. Tinned kidney beans are fine but raw untreated ones can be dangerous apparently. Just to make you aware.
Cooking tip with bay leaves ( from my Grandma). When you're boiling cabbage, cauliflower etc, pop a dry bay leaf, cracked across, in the water, and it helps to stop the cabbage pong !
Absolutely love these videos Richard so honest.
Very good, making your own lid for your post box, my grandad made one like that for his recycling box, great books about healthy food aswell some great ideas Richard.
Aah - Richard 'Right Thinking' about plant based whole foods. I've noticed that while they taste great when plain cooked .. rotating your chefdom through 'Indian', Chinese, & 'Mediteranian' etc. styled spices and herbs adds a zest that replaces the meaty flavors while keeping the foods low fat and non-dairy. - Well done Cobber.
Very interesting as always 👍😊
It's good to see you have your finger on the pulse Richard. I can imagine an idyllic cafe called The Blue Legume. Thanks for keeping us posted.
Oh that's a good cafe name!
I think to be more accurate he has his fingers on the pulses.
Porridge oats are very good combined with beans to make burgers. They help stick everything together.
@@sarahstrong7174 exactamundo !
Hi Richard. You could burn the words "Post" or "Parcels", or whatever you decide, on the wooden lid (Pyrography). I've done a little bit of that on wooden cooking utensils, writing a few words on them. Though you would need to buy a pyrography pen, but they're not that expensive. Just an idea. Love where your going with diet. On that path myself. Thanks for the vid. Love from Galicia.
I once made a set of Nordic tunes using a sliced branch & a pyrography iron. It's satisfying being creative.
thank you for sharing
So enjoyable. Coconut base curry delicious. Thank you for this
Good One Richard! Nice Seeing What You Can Do With Beans & Meals Which Can Be Used In. Your Parcel Store Lid Looks Great As Does Your New Bay Tree - I Was Lucky To Aquire One Also They Floursh. 😊
Food in England,Great book you should enjoy reading it Richard.
Watching you doing diy reminded me of Wallace and Grommit. A grand day out, please don't change.
Have no fear! :)
I’m looking forward to the food history and the way we used the kitchen way back when 😁😁👍🏻
Don't forget to boil for twenty minutes, kidney beans toxic if raw. Lovely eaten in rice, with coconut milk. Tyme and plenty of pepper. Delicious 😋 with stewed chicken 🐔 or lamb or beef. Lovely cooking books. Beans and sausage cassoulet. How lovely to see you experiment with staples. Have fun, and enjoy the experience.
Thanks so much.
All the best fot 2022.
Richard doesn't read these anymore but that wall slam made me chuckle
Great vlog Richard, how about a walk round petersfield? I do a great recipe for lentil, paneer cheese and spinach curry, using coconut milk.
Tong oil Richard, better than linseed oil, but rather expensive. I think your attitude towards nutrition is spot on... good luck. I've done myself a great favour foregoing cereals but hey we're all different and each must find what works for them.
Great idea of threading a string through the bay leaves in order to hang them up for drying. I use bay leaves when making Bigos, a Polish sauerkraut-based casserole type dish translated as ‘hunters stew’, involving generous portions of dried polish sausages and other pork meats. You should try cooking and simmering one on your Esse.
BTW, good use of the old sock, Richard. I did notice that you had a crafty sniff at 10:54!
It’s ok, I won’t divulge your secret sock-sniffing fetish! 😊
He's got some nuts!
Beans and legumes are are staple over here in the Eastern Med and they’re great as well as healthy. You’ll never look back. I would avoid tinned beans, ok as an emergency ration. Enjoy your journey into unprocessed foods.👍😄
i just replayed where you open your front door. looks like you could easily make the mail slot three times wider and at least doule the height if you popped off the door and cut it out using your jig saw. just a suggestion of course :)
Great idea with the box - I’m surprised they aren’t commercially made!
Barry Bucknell,Jack Hargreaves and Delia Smith all in one episode!
Haha yes!
Nice to see the town still has a Crown Post Office rather than miserable sub post office in the corner of a grubby shop.
Drill a few holes in the bottom of the box and no water will collect. Pay particular attention to the sealing the edges of that ply lid or it will fall apart. 3 coats minimum
A bit of muslin over the bay leaves will keep the dust & dross off.
I only eat grass-fed beef. You dont need many grams of it. I have a variety of dried beans, fresh vegetables I grow myself. I also have chickens running around to supply fresh eggs daily.
Richard as a fellow sussexian I love your videos! Thank you!
Enjoy a drink on me
I would have put hinges on the top of your post box, that way it wouldn't slide sideways or blow off.
Those childproof bottle tops are a problem aren't they! Lol
What is the name of the backing music you use ?
Have you tried black bean brownies? my wife makes them and i love them with a cup of tea
Ooh beans I wonder if richard was flipping them into the soaking dish
very good and interesting as usual i sent for the book Supercharge your brain and look forward to a dip into it . what was the title of your new cookery book for the whole foods ?
Hi. I am a postie. You postman might have been concerned about damaging the book as it fell on the floor. I theory we shouldn't leave parcels in a box that is not lockable. At our office, we have been told, in the past, that we shouldn't open a porch door. We are responsible until you are in possession, or it is behind a locked door. When the Iceland ash cloud was happening, one of our guys put a parcel in a bin and pushed a note through the door. In the time that the owners were stuck abroad, it was bin day and a neighbour put the bins out to be emptied. Parcel was lost. A certain well known online company demanded that he be sacked, which he was. Extremely unlikely scenario, admittedly, but if items go missing in these circumstances we are approached by a manager. So it really is up to the postman if he uses the box. Nice thought though.
It is also useful for other deliveries.
Yes, and it will help the postman if he decides to use it. It's a good idea lots of delivery folk will appreciate it.
Did you try and put the book through your letterbox yourself to see if it fit?? Believe me if he/she could get it through they would have done.. unless it risked damaging your book! x
I trust your dietary changes are having a positive effect, Richard?. The postman obviously doesn't ring twice in Worthing!
Do you do much gardening?
I don't have a garden
You seem to have scared off all the cows & sheep with all your sawing & drilling anyway.
It's too wide to got through the letterbox, they'd have knocked. Do not criticise my class they work you don't.
Are you sure that plain package isn't porn?
no darned sound again, c'mon Vobsie check yor settings. lol
The sound is perfectly fine.. Do you need to check your settings?
Richard, instead of diet. Start thinking of life style changes.
