Default Herbs Over Winter

In message , Gavin Bl

Hi
I have some herbs in pots in the back garden - mint (regular and
pineapple) and thyme (lemon and regular). What should i do with these
over winter, take them indoors, leave em alone, cut em back??

Also I have some sage in the kitchen that has not been outside since I
bought it. Should I leave it inside over winter, or put it out before
it gets really cold.

Leaving outside should be OK. Don't let them dry out in spring, when
you should also feed. Sage is a bit temperamental, so be careful.
Also, it can become very straggly.
