Ahhh, Karmacat don't be. Pippi now has at her disposal 2 lists. One is the list of what I've bought from the 50% sale. The other list is the 'type' of seeds that are sold, but are currently still at 342.

There were only 4 packets of seeds (of the sort Pippi was after) on the 50% rail that I didn't get - 2 types of tomatoes and 2 types of pumpkin. Pippi knows what these are, and how much they cost, so can decide if they are vital to the plan.

The seeds on the 342 contain more of what Pippi was after, but the discount isn't great - esp when factoring in postage costs. When/if they come down to 50/75% off, then it'll be a better deal.

Sorry to of had a rant, didn't mean to worry anyone - I just wanted to try my best for Pippi - having mentioned it in the first place! And, after all, they had to sell me one pack of incorrectly stickered seeds for half price :rotfl:

ps Good point Cheery!!

I tend to worry a bit, sorry! Had a bad morning - adrenalin overload from a really difficult phone call - I haven't been able to settle to anything after that, I feel really overloaded, but I've got the main bulk of my work today starting in just under an hour, its a real pain, and I have to be more or less centred by then. I will be, but I could really do with going for a walk, and I just can't - and anyway, there's a regular cloudburst going on....

If I don't get back on later, hope everyone has a good evening - I'm free just after 7.30, so I shall join everyone metaphorically then

Glad to hear phase one of operation personal seed shopper is going well - Stripes how is that stock-up shop list getting on?!

Pippi, what you looking to stock up on?

Still hobbling about, getting better though.

Been away for a few days and just caught up.

Fab pictures of the sunset and I carried on and had a sneak peek at the others. I don't know why you don't think your pictures have a market, they are brilliant - I loved Einstein in the flowers

Missed the car, was that on there or FB?

My niece's boyfriend has an old Aston Martin and muddy boots are not allowed in there either. She bought boot bags for it for Christmas as muddy boots are not even allowed in the boot :rotfl:

I missed the moon last night But I was on a night out to celebrate a friends birthday at a George Michael Tribute night :beer:

I got very excited about your hourly rate until I found out how many hours you did - any chance of upping them a bit? That would sort the treat budget

Sounds as though you are having good times with Mr Stripes Mum.

Hat shopping was very successful, she got a hat for during the day and a fascinator for the evening. Not at all MSE but she doesn't need to worry about that and I love shopping vicariously through her ANd it is nice to see how the other half live sometimes!
