I'm afraid the boat has already set sail... but as this is a relatively small cruise, it may well go round again - after a quick return home for a refit, of course!

Hi Everybody,

I have no idea where the ship is or when it will get to me but to speed up the visit I have prepared all the stores I wish to put onboard but I have a quick question.  With all the vegetable seeds I have parceled up a few flower seeds, some are edible and some are just pretty but no doubt the creatures will like them.  Are these OK to go in or not?  I have never done a seed swap before so I am unsure of the rules.

Please advise, Bon Voyage :-)

Helen

We'll take all passengers, no probs. The original parcel includes fruit, veg, herbs and flowers. The only requirement is they must all have place names in the titles.    :)

Just had a moment of panic and thought I'd better look to see what seeds I had. Turned out I've 250 packets in total so I'm probably OK!  :P
For myself I am an optimist - it does not seem to be much use being anything else.

Mmm well I remember going to the quaint seaside village of White Scallop, just near Papa de Rola I believe. Aah reminiscing.. the times we had scaling  Grando Violetta and coming home through  Time Out of Mind to the cottage in Parella Rossa.

Maybe the boat will just have to leave a few booze soaked tourists in the bar ....

I guess Liverpool - famous for ships and the Liverbirds - nr the "wirral" may be, and perhaps one of the little birds that visit my nut feeder???

Lucky girl  ;D
