My main worry is that my orientals came ages ago...I'm worried that they think they've sent me both :P

Any luck, Moonbells?

They still didn't reply to my email :(

Didn't get the chance to phone - but Sir did phone to say the seeds had come - who was it who wanted the spinach????

Life is spent waiting for tomorow? When we have time to do something? We won't do it, but the plants will come.

Tim, you sound like a Buddhist master ;)

I got my spinach today so my faith is slightly renewed  ;D

Tim, is your surname Dobie, by any chance?

Phoned just now - apparently they were so popular they could have sold the collection four times over and they have had to grow some more!

Course I'm away for a long weekend (hence my need to know when they are arriving as I can see them shrivelling outside the front door!) and even Dobies can't tell me - lady is going to let me know when she can reach the nursery to track my batch...

It's perhaps because of this site that they are so popular  :)  Ordered some garlic from there today too

I wondered that too!
Mine are due out week beginning 12th so I'm safe for a few days and won't have to worry about them being left outside for all and sundry to pinch.

Have just managed to get through to Dobies as I was worried about going on holiday and mine are being sent out next week apparently.  Gulp - hope they arrive as I am away from 19th, otherwise they will sit  and die at the post office  :'(

hmmm, suppose it would be to much to ask for them to come tomorrow as Monday is allotment day!
