A month or so ago i added a basil growing pot to our tesco delivery. Once it was here i divided it into four or five pieces and planted each bit into its own small pot. A couple of weeks later i put them all into a great big pot and i now have more basil than ever and its really healthy and great flavour. All for £1.50 plus timeNeighbour over the road brought me another enormous bag of basil so I shall add pine nuts, garlic and Parmesan and extra virgin olive oil and turn it into pesto.
Should get at least half a litre.
It freezes easily.

Yeah i did it with thyme and coriander too but whilst they’re growing reasonably they’re nothing like the basil.

Wonderful stuff. Done the same myself. Next time you have the oven on I recommend baking some potatoes and turning them into gnocchi. Mine are imperfect looking but delicious, go well with the pesto and can go in the freezer too.Neighbour over the road brought me another enormous bag of basil from his allotment so I shall add pine nuts, garlic and Parmesan and extra virgin olive oil and turn it into pesto.

Smoking tabs drinking witches brew and just nearly won £100000 on a scratch card, and received a ban of another forum just a few days but it might be more after I queried why, I'm chilled.
That's a great thing for kids to get into. A mate of mine has a daughter, when 10 years old she desperately wanted to go camping and climbing. I was all set, it would have been great to go out, dangle her off a cliff, abseiling, climbing up and down, all that, and then back to the tents for a dinner and a few beers but my mate was too bloody lazy. That ship has sailed now, she's grown up.We then went to Decathlon and found some sandals and a fleece. Also we bagged some womens purple fancy hiking shorts.
I have promised her a decent large rucksack soon, to contribute to her camping/hiking hobby.
You can get merino wool stuff, I have a T shirt like that, it was inexpensive and it's great. Being wool it doesn't get smelly and water doesn't make it clingy and cold and wet like cotton. You might get away with synthetics as mid layers if you had a wool base layer.The clothes in Decathlon are mostly synthetic fibres, which I cannot wear. I find this really annoying as I like many of the designs. Without fail, anything synthetic I wear, e.g. a T-shirt makes me sweat like a pig.
