I thought about how such a waste of engineering and excavation could be utilised into something else. This could probably help keep the jobs for the miners in similar work in their mines, but turning them into hydro-electricity plants.

The diagrams shown prove that this could have been achieved, and my idea has created a battery. This was explained to me by a professor from Wolverhampton University. I took my idea to Wolverhampton University for them to look at.

As individual energy producers of solar and wind, the public could share in these huge clean batteries rather than very expansive lithium batteries in their homes. Lithium batteries also cause damage as the ore is sometimes mined from rain forests.   READ MORE

The Dome would occupy a pedestrianised area of central Bristol, and would create an ideal music and arts venue, in addition to laundry facilities, veterinary care and mental health healing.

The catering and general running of the Homedome would be managed by a team that would help the homeless to learn the skills in catering, music and stage services.

The main funding would come from events and the electronic advertising on the exterior lower section of the Homedome.

Homedome would become a 'first stop shop', providing the homeless with essential commodities such as shelter, jobs and healthcare, including mental health.

I went on a roller-coaster ride which had been really hyped up by the press but it did not live up to the hype in my opinion. I thought how a much better ride would be to have a capsule racing through a tube with video screen images shown to the passengers.

From there my idea progressed to having the capsule float on a cushion of repelling magnets. The cost of this would have been too much for the pleasure ride option but I thought it would make a great transport system.

I used the idea of a train running on repelling magnets inside a tube. The tube would have the air sucked out so there would be no wind resistance.   READ MORE

It is using the simple action of condensation from moist ground with a membrane barrier above ground to create the condensation. You have all seen polythene lying on the lawn with water droplets forming on the underside. This moisture has been drawn from the ground due to the effect of the daytime heat.

Imagine this condensation system on a monumental scale. Look at the diagram (left) and you will see the idea situated in our coastal desert regions of the planet.

The sea water would be let into subterranean water tables which would be parched from the lack of rains. Once the land is fully saturated the membrane would condensate the moisture and water would gather on the underside of the huge membranes.   READ MORE

These are massive volcanoes which have almost wiped out life on Earth. Yellowstone Park in America is a huge crater from one of these super volcanoes. Imagine the cross section of earth where Yellowstone is situated, 900 miles from the Pacific ocean.

It is probably impossible but who knows in the future if maybe we could drill beneath the Earth's crust to release the pressure of magma into the Pacific, we could possibly take the pressure off Yellowstone and prevent the threat of extinction.

This is maybe completely impossible to do but never give up hope.   READ MORE

The rainforest is cleared for the production of beef. Massive areas have been slashed and burned to make way for this farming method.

The Brazilians have the right to farm their land but the forest is an extremely valuable piece of our planet. It provides huge amounts of oxygen and very powerful medicinal plants. It is home to indigenous tribes who live in complete balance with nature.

So to try to keep everybody happy, the farming method needs to change.   READ MORE

That is, if it is achievable. To place a space craft in an optimum position between us and the sun is, I would imagine, a huge task. But then again, Alexander the Great would have thought a satellite was impossible.

It might just be a matter of time. If we could do this it may just give us the ability to control our weather.

All our weather patterns are driven by the sun and also factors on the planet's surface such as foliage, cloud cover and atmospheric conditions due to us or volcanic activity. By cooling areas of oceans which are hotspots for hurricanes, this would potentially help to prevent the hurricanes becoming super strength.

They asked me to go to a Munich trade show in 2000, to try and promote the Oldski Bag. I went there and met up with the guys. They were both from Australia and they also knew another Aussie who had an outback clothing company. He had a real big chip on his shoulder with the English.

This was my first ever taste of racism or bigotry towards myself, just for being English. He really meant it as he made comments all bloody day.

Anyway, we all went for Pizza that night, I said: "What? I come all this way to Germany and have cheese on toast?" It was just a jibe back at the racist Aussie.   READ MORE

After a trip to Austria in 1991 where the snow was very poor, I designed the Oldski Bag. I managed to get fifty bags made by a video camera bag manufacturer in Trowbridge, Wiltshire.

I drove to Scotland in 1993 with the van loaded up with Oldski Bags. I slept in the back of the van in the ski resort car parks and tried to sell the bags to shops and skiers in Glencoe, Glenshee, The Lecht and Aviemore.

While driving and getting lost, I came across some very large gates to some sort of country home. There was a local man by the gates, so I stopped and asked him where I was.   READ MORE

It might just help me make a living, giving me more time to promote the Planetician Principle and Planetician Projects.

If you do happen to work for or own a wind turbine manufacturing company please get in touch. The idea could make the output of the turbine much more profitable.

My dad was one of the first farmers in the UK to start growing chickens in sheds. This industry has grown into a massive business world wide, supplying the masses with cheap chicken meat.

The feed systems in the early eighties comprised a system which used flat chains and rectangular troughs. These systems caused problems and some young chickens got injured and killed in these feed systems.

I helped my dad design the Chick Flip, which prevented any injuries and contamination in the feed lines.   READ MORE
