    A bright and sunny day, but still that cold wind so 9 degrees doesn't actually feel like it, nice sat in the conservatory doing a jigsaw and telling my peppers/chillies to get a move on.

    Thank you everyone, it is covered in flower buds so I'll keep it potted near the back door for fragrance and then consider where to put it.

    Airfryer - worth buying? Any hints and tips to make the most of them

    We love our Lakeland airfryer - one big drawer with a removable divider. Bought silicon dishes which are dishwasher-proof to save on the mess.
