I received some seeds from a neighbourly promotion about getting into the garden.
Part of the idea was to give some to neighbours.
If anyone wants some lettuce seedlings, I have some ready free for you.
Ideal if you live on own as purchasing 6 packets of seedlings isn't always ideal.
I can give you 2, 3 or 4 seedlings if you want. Just let me know.

These can be grown in small containers such as an ice-cream container. No need to have heaps of garden space.

Over the last couple of years I have been made aware that I need to keep upto date with cost for replacing my house if I have to replace it.
This year the insurance companies have not mentioned it which got me wondering. So I used the online calculator that I used last year and the price dropped by $200K ?
Last year my house was estimated for selling at $200K more, but why would that affect the rebuilding costs?
I am sure there are some people who will be able to share thoughts
