Yup, I have and do and will be tomorrow!  Want to get some winter seeds and I will be getting my onions from them, unless anyone suggests somewhere better :)  I think they are all a touch on the pricey side, but it is the luxury (and laziness) of sitting down on my garden lounger with a long drink, looking over my lovely garden, listening to the ice cubes chinking in the glass as the bumble bees bumble and the birds twitter and browsing thru the catalogue as Ava looks after the children for me and lets me spend as many pennies as I like.......

Oops, reality check please!  :o ;D

I'm more into non-edible stuff and I order my seeds from Thompson and Morgan.  I like the detailed bit that lists the germination from 'easy' to 'challenging'!  Did get a lot from Wilkinsons on Monday - all half price and the veggies  had expiry dates of 2007!

I've been looking for somewhere mail order - do Marshalls or T&M have a website? Save me searching.....!

T&M do. Google will get 'em.  I ordered my stuff on it and it was painless - arrived in 4 days or so.

How does one obtain a Marshall's cat? As a newbie I am interested in where to get seeds and stuff? Already have an Organic Gardening cat.

My dad always ordered from Marshalls. Am awaiting the autumn catalogue, which was due out today (according to a notice at the Gardeners World live show)
