Well my outdoor basil plant lasted three years, through frost and snow, although in quite a sheltered spot.Originally posted by The Castle Cary Fairy View PostI don't see basil lasting through the winter - it's not very hardy is it?
I think it was more the incessant damp weather we've had last year and this which did for it in the end.
But actually, parts of it are still hanging on. So who knows, maybe it will recover.Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

I have done a couple of “laps of the paddock”. The owner is a buddy that competes in the Tourenwagen Classics (uses a pro driver, Stefan), I am one of the sponsors. The owner also has a Ferrari service center in Bavaria with some pretty awesome cars.Originally posted by WTFH View Post
8 times a year we get together drink beer, and then go and race cars the day after - supporting the DTM.
Both Alfas are fantastic. The Q is something else. I can’t match my lap times in the M3 with it, but there are many who can.
Will PM you some photos of the vehicle, team and of course the insane parties hosted by the crazy Dutch AMG guys. Oh and the girls. Bunch of Divas.Comment

The police were very kind, they kept us locked in for an hour while the Spuds went to tool themselves up with empty beer bottles. The walk back to civilisation (Islington) was probably some people's definition of exciting, I can tell you.His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...Comment
