Whilst I'm thinking about it Dave here is a site that might be of interest to you and others for growing seeds of not so common varieties:

http://www.chilternseeds.co.uk/

In my younger gardening days when I had a complete garden to fill I enjoyed growing some oddball things that you don't see in garden centres. I've grown a few trees from seed and some of the faster growing ones ended up on my log stash for the fire:D Still got a much admired Australian Mountain Ash in the garden which is now about 30ft high....evergreen with very white flaking bark.

Don't know whether they still offer them but you could buy seeds of things like the tumbleweed that you see in Westerns. Used to laugh at their description of " ....a very obliging plant that after flowering, dies, uproots itself and disappears into next doors garden...."

oh Artha why did you get lazy? I love growing weird and wonderful things:)..........the conversations we could have had*sigh* :rotfl::rotfl:

Glad to hear about your day

That works not :eek:

All I did was sort from lowest to highest price on M & S before I went to bed. Might be worth doing a bit more often.

I must add, I think (well at least local to me) that hospices are really excellent, if, they really do try so hard. I know you cant say it was a good experience, but I was very happy with the one that is local to me. They deserve all the support they can get.

I totally agree, it was the fact that when I said I had look about and that I was finished looking about and was about to leave, and she replies 'your joking arnt you' that I got my back up.

Tiny, where was it ordered from???

Was M & S dave, went straight out of stock after ordering 2 crates, played around on google to see if it had been posted on dark side etc which it hadn't and followed the M & S link back to it and it was in stock again so ordered another couple for next day delivery. Still have not got it in my hands yet but looking good as have tracking details. :j

Well of course, he married me you know.

Behind you all on the scan and snap stuff I am afraid, I must be the only one not doing it yet. Trouble is I don't have a smartphone or a clue how to upload anything.

I have a smartphone but don't use it for that sort of thing. I find it much easier to use my printer/scanner. Once it's scanned it's only a coulpe of clicks to get it uploaded by TCB or Quidco
