Time to replace my dated synthetic sleeping bag after a chilly night in November. What do you recommend (plus seen any good deals in the sales?)

Also after a lightweight rucksack - Alpkit Gourdon any good?

My house. Its far too cold dark and unpleasant to be sleeping out of doors without far too much kit to be carried in a bike

Alpkit PD800 or PHD Minim 600 depending on the conditions.

Inov8 or OMM for a lightweight pack. Gourdon is great VFM but quite basic. Probably more suited to winter use though, not such a sweaty back and weather-proof.

There are always sleeping bag bargains online, make sure you know what fill weight/power you require and keep your eye out. Outdoormagic clasifieds can be good, my £300+ PHD was £100 and in great condition.
