Or rather, they are :D

As we had about 20 people interested, I made up 2 parcels so they'll get around everyone quicker. Both got away in the post today. If you're in London or Durham keep an eye out for a nice squishy jiffy bag coming through a door near you soon ;)

Full instructions enclosed (not that there were many! ;D)

Hope everyone finds lots of things they like and enjoys taking part.

Any problems, comments, questions etc, just ask :)

Yay! I was wondering whether it would be worth people saying if there's anything in particular they're after, so if we have a big choice of things to include, we'll know what to choose.

(And, um.. having assessed my seed-pile, I'm in need of some sweetcorn. ;)

Hi, am I too late for this, I am new but would love to take part and I do have lots os seeds to share.What do I do next please. Thank you Jeannine XX

Hi Jeannine, sorry you are too late for this round of "pass the parcel". The details of everyone taking part have gone off with the seed parcels.

However I've deliberately kept the numbers low for each parcel (10) so it shouldn't take too long before it all comes back. And then, if there's enough interest, we can do it all again ;D So watch this space, as they say!

Lisa :)

Thanks for sorting this out Lisa, I doubt it would have got off the ground without you.

Very much appreciated,

Jo.

Thanks for giving us your time and effort will keep a watch for the postie hope it is not too long before he arrives :D

Thanks for the compliments, but its really gonna be a team effort with everyone doing their bit as the parcel goes round :)

Plus bagging up all my spares and sending them off makes me feel slightly less guilty for all the seed shopping I've done in the last 12 months.... :-[ ;) ;D

Thank you Lisa, I will keep my eyes open for the next one. It is very kind of you to organise this. XX Jeannine

Well done Lisa - and us! Oh, what the heck, well done EVERYBODY!

;D

Hey, this huge amount of seeds arrived today. ;D

I've been very restrained (if only I had more room) but I couldn't resist a few French beans and a couple of courgettes. :)

Will post the parcel on tomorrow/Friday so if you are in Mid Glamorgan watch out for the postie. ;D

found this new thread so have copied my post below:-

Woo Hoo! ;D

I have got the parcel! Am very excited and looking through my seeds right now! I also have some tiny zip bags and labels, which I can include for the next person to put seeds in.

Will post again on Friday (my mum wants to look too) - the next person on the list is Laura in Walton on Thames

CityChick · « **Reply #14 on:** February 14, 2007, 20:08:26 »

Glad they both arrived promptly, and sounds like you're enjoying yourselves ;D

So far then, so good.... (phew!)

The parcel arrived today ;D ;D ;D Have done a bit of swapping, and it is ready to be posted off on Monday morning. It is a GREAT idea! It was such fun opening the parcel to see what goodies were inside.

I heard a little elf say that Santa was on his way to somewhere begining with P in Cheshire next, but dont tell anyone :-X
