No, go right ahead as I think your seed order should arrive.  They've sent me a £5 voucher so I've got to order something now, and have sent for their 2006 catalogue.  I asked for a catalogue yonks ago to but not received that either. 
I came, I saw, I composted

Humph! I am not impressed either - it should be first come first served or they should be grovelling a lot more than a fiver's worth... should have been the price of the order! This makes me feel guilty that I ordered!

Must go up there and see if mine are still in existence or if they've been eaten... ie see if there are any spares left...

I got me money back and the fiver voucher.  I only got the fiver back though cos I complained.

It's not surprising that folks said their plants were a bit wilted.  I had to phone the sheet mulch people up to complain about non delivery and he said he'd given my mulch to DHL the following morning after my ordering.  He chased up DHL and found my order still sitting in the depot nearly a week later.   I reckon that's what probably happened with the brassica orders - not mine obviously  ;D

I've been looking through Fothergills and there are some cabbages which can be sown in October so I think I might order those (Advantage F1)
