The cold weather is giving me an excuse to drink lots of hot chocolate, put my pj's on when i get home and generally be slotherly!!! Yeah! And I love it - oh and it's saving me a fortune because I don't want to go out and spend any money!!

I'm going to sow a few tomatoes and chillis in my heated propogator this weekend to get some really early crops. Will cheer me up no end too as I'm finding the weather so depressing. :-)

I bought 30 Seville oranges today and I'm starting to make the marmalade tomorrow!
I love the taste of homemade maarmalade, its cheap and the house smells so good

I'm doing my tomatoes/chillies in two weeks but i'm going to sow some banana seeds this weekend & hopefully have a few exotic plants by the summer. :j

Good luck with the bananas - I'd love to hear how they do for you. I don't heat my greenhouse and think I'd struggle to make space for those along with the tomatoes and other tender plants I grow.

Yep time for a bit of the old POSITIVITY on the old Norn Iron thread again:T:T:T

I just got my house and contents insurance for a year for 4p:D Sainsburys bank had the best quote for me at £100.04, I can remember paying upwards of £30 a month when I first started paying house and contents insurance, before I wised up of course;)

Anyway went through Quidco who are presently offering £100 cashback for home insurance:T it has tracked as well, so 4p for home and contents insurance in N.I. can't beat that with a big stick, a lot cheaper than the £60 (after £50 cashback) I payed the co-operative last year, long live Quidco :beer:

well done for actually getting someone on quidco to actually do Northern Ireland for house insurance, everyone I tried previously didn't!! now just a 3 or 4 month wait on your cashback lol!
