In weaving, how do you bind it off so that it can't all be pulled off the warp threads? I've tried just knotting the warp together in pairs and tying the end of the weft to the end knot, but I'm sure...
Would people have known the war was over on November 11th, since I heard there were few - or no - radios at home? Or did people back home simply not know until a wire or a telegram arrived saying that...
Did the general public have radio (i.e. 'the wireless') in their homes in WWI? I mean, it's mentioned a lot in relation with the Second World War but I wanted to know if people were gathered round the...
I've just bought one of these second-hand, and I can't get it to start up. It counts the memory, then I have to wait ages until anything else comes up - it recognises the Win98SE startup disk in the...
Can anyone give a link to a picture of Mark Gatiss's face from the side? I'm trying to improve my art skills, and as far as I can remember he has a lovely nose. Thanks! =) xXx
Can anyone tell me the general staff? And who takes care of the equipment, services it, etc? Do they have a special department within the university or a handyman, or when something breaks or goes...
I was home educated all my life - I'm currently in a part-time course doing English for a GCSE, at my local college. Is there anywhere I can do a course for a GCSE in Media Studies as an outsider? I...
Can a virus be contagious AND hereditary, or just one? For instance, could someone else catch it from a blood transfusion, and any children they have later on would have it too? This is a made-up...
Does anyone know of any scriptwriting/screenwriting courses in the South West that aren't full-time university courses? Maybe a workshop that only lasts a few days? I can't find anything. :( xXx
I recently found an old record at the tip, an amateur recording from 1953 by a Lewellyn Rhys (possibly - can't read the handwriting) arguing against the campaign to ban fox-hunting. It's in the form...
Model CS-E - can find lots of CS models, but they're all too ornate and old-looking... mine looks retro in a 1950's/60's sense, but it's hard to tack it to a specific decade. It's of a greyish duck...
Can anyone give me an example of the style of speech the Saxons used? For example, Victorians used the same language as those in Shakesperean times, but arranged words differently... are Saxon times...
Does anyone remember a one-hit-wonder (I think) a few years ago called Gita, she released this video that was about a virtual world where everyone was the same and mowed their lawns exactly the same...
I'm penpals with this guy in New Mexico, but recently he's been signing his emails 'luv ya' and now he's started mentioning he hasn't got a girlfriend, how cool and pretty I am, and how he's raising...
I found a book of the Black Holes & Revelations album for guitar, but nothing for piano. Can anybody help me locate it, if it exists?! Or can I play the guitar tabs on piano? (Having never looked...
