    Nothing so exciting as a hen harrier in my garden Pippi! :T :T

    I'd love to know how you're going to send half a spring onion plant :D (well, I guess quite easily, but it wouldn't be much use other than a salad! :rotfl: )

    Looking forward to going through my own seed packets - I too have far more than I'll ever use (I would send them to you, but, er, you might drown if you add any more to the pile! Quite happy to see what I've got though if you think you can use some of them since I'm blatantly not going to plant them all :rotfl:)

    Stopping work now, going to plonk myself in front of the tv for a couple of hours in a bid to get this knitting done! :T
  • Goodluck with the knitting!

    And well I was only joking about the half plant :) but then again.................Veggie boxes through the post you never know!!!!

    Enjoy the knitting

    Folk here are often putting seeds into the local charity shop - if you've a favourite one that might be a plan? Or find someone lovely at the WI who grows stuff and donate them there - or a local community garden??

    There's a fair amount o seed swapping goes on round here - and the local transitions towns group (that I'm supposedly a member of) has just acquired some new land for another mini community garden :j So plenty of stuff to do with them :j

    (just need to retrieve them from under all the palace-related detritus first! :rotfl:)

    Been looking at your seeds list Pippi, and have started an order list!

    I will have to cross-check with mine...will do this tomorrow and over the weekend, so you should get an order for seeds winging its way to you the beginning of next week!!!


    Now tea's ready, so must go.

    Have a good evening.

    Oh wow keiss I just voiced it as an idea - didn't expect folk to want 'stuff' here - happy to help anyone I can but a bit surprised in a good way - wow! But if I can aid anyone with their grow thier own - and be a virtual on line technical 'support' gardener for everyone when they need, then my mission to cover the world in flower's/veggie's might be gaining speed!

    We can grow our own!!

    Full of tea (chicken 'sandwich) I'm not v hungry - thinking bed and book - in that order.

    :) knowing me I'll be up til later though!

    saying that you'll get the world to grow their own reminds me of a comment by my MIL, that our allotment is a waste of time because it's a lot of work and it's much easier just to go to the supermarket!

    i may have a look at your list as well, i don't want to over commit ourselves this year but seeds are just so tempting.
  • lol to your MIL - and LT happy to do swapsies for seeds as I know you've got a fair few as well - if anything takes your fancy - we can do a dodgy del boy deal :)

    i'll have a look at what we bought this year. We got them from a seed catalogue to it feels like there's lots of seeds even if they're in small packets.
