I have a remaining 25 weeks on my gym membership to Health and Sport Fitness Club in Kingsland. It's an amazing gym with excellent classes, tons of equipment, huge pool, onsite physio and massage, and a sauna. It has lots of parking and it's right next to the Kingsland train stop.

The weekly membership fee is $25.95. You won't pay me anything at all. You'll just be committing to taking over my membership and paying the weekly gym fee. I’ll even help pay your $35 direct debit set up fee. This is a special reduced rate (it's a couples rate rather than a single), and you'll have no joining fee, so it's a great way to join. If you love the gym you can always extend. The gym offers three day free trials if you want to try it out before you commit.

I have THREE of these memberships available, so just let me know how many you want. They can be given away separately or together, and the special discounted rate still applies!

You'll need to meet me at the gym to sign the transfer paperwork, and then it'll be all yours. Make those fitness goals happen, and get working on your New Year's resolution!

Been under cover for an entire year, ready to go for next winter. All split and good to go straight in the stove. It's stored in my shed in the back garden, so I am happy to help you load it into your vehicle as it'll take some trips (bring a wheelbarrow if you can! Mine is small). I'm moving so I need it gone; I am happy to sell smaller bundles as well, or letting you come get it in several small loads.

This curry keeps well in the fridge for a few days and the leftovers taste even better the next day.

Ingredients
1 kg Chicken pieces, including thighs, drums, wings
2 cloves Garlic
5 cm Fresh ginger, peeled
1 med Onion, peeled and cut into quaters
1 Tbsp Oil
1 large Lemon, or lime, freshly juiced
1 Tbsp Cumin seeds
1 pinch Cayenne pepper
2 Tbsp Tomato paste
½ cup Cream, or yoghurt

Directions
Remove skin from the chicken if you prefer.
Place garlic, ginger and onion in a food processor. Blend until smooth. Add 150ml water to make into a thin puree.
Heat the oil in a heavy-based frying pan. When hot, add the chicken pieces and brown on both sides. While cooking season with salt.
When the chicken is nicely browned, squeeze over the lemon juice and continue cooking for 2 minutes. Add the cumin seeds, cayenne and tomato paste.
Pour in the garlic, onion and ginger puree, cover the frying pan with a lid and simmer for 5 minutes.
Turn the chicken. Stir in the cream or yoghurt. Add enough water to cover the chicken, cover and continue to cook on a low heat for 20-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked. Cooking time will depend on the cut of chicken you have used and whether it is on the bone.
Check for seasoning — you may need more salt or cayenne if you like it hot.
Remove from the heat and rest with the lid on for 5-10 minutes. The chicken will keep cooking in this time and will be more tender when you come to eat it.
Serve with rice and steamed seasonal vegetables.
