On the veggie front, depends really. We have a huge garden but growing stuff in there is a bit hard (cos we're rubbish at it ). We do have huge lemon, orange, peach and cherry tree's though. Also a grape vine and a few other stuff that are popping up in our garden this year.

I did manage to grow tomato's, cucumbers, capsicums and a lettuce this year though. Hoping to get better at it for next year
I am so looking forward to growing my lemons outdoors- I have a lemon tree here in a pot, and have about 6 lemons a year off it, but it has to come in for the winter. Where do you live?? I am heading for Sydney- how different is the climate to SE England??
Keen Gardener!!!

Some people think you can - others think it would be a struggle.

What tips do you have for saving money? It could be bargains in certain shops, cheapest fuel suppliers, a cheap yet healthy recipe, low cost mortgage - absolutely anything that will help people save a bob or two.

In the U.K there is a site called moneysavingexpert.com. Perhaps there is something similar for Australia.

All tips welcome
Chooks!! If you have a big garden, section of a bit at the end for some hens et voila lots of fresh eggs. Definitely agree many home brand items are as good as labels and when something is on special, bulk buy and fill the cupboard and freezer.

MMMmmm home brew, don't know if it's cheaper than the bottlo but its great enjoying the fruits of your labour!!
