Wow. I didn't think you could get that many seeds into a jiffy bag. I got the superfast April swap on the same morning so I think I'd best go and have a bit of a break and a cup of tea! Added some okra, though not much, sorry, and some other bits and bobs. Swore to myself that I didn't need any more beans - that lasted about five minutes!
For myself I am an optimist - it does not seem to be much use being anything else.

Jeannine, just being nosey really  ;D how many people are left to go on this?

Also want to ask you a few bean questions, but did not want to spoil it for anyone else that had not yet received the parcel, but it may be helpful for those that have been invovled in this swap and that have picked the same beans as me!! ;)

Doris, I think there is about 10 left. It cam back to me by accident and I topped up the beans.

This went in the post an hour ago! Going somewhere feathery and broad, inhabited by one who doesn't bite.

Has this arrived yet? The other I sent out the same day has been unpacked already. Bit paranoid given the fate of the earlier parcel.

Parcel is indeed here! There's certainly plenty to choose from! I'll PM Jeannine for next address.

Don't know who it is but it reminded me of a ditty I used to sing to the kids.
Grrreeeen and Yelllllerrrr
Grrreeeen and Yelllllerrrr
Oh Mother come quick
I feel very sick
And I wanna lay down and die.
Many verses, but that is the chorus and I feel sure some of you can join in. ;D
(had my turn with the parcel, isn't it great?)
Smile, it confuses people.

OK Dadnlad, I'm just off to the post office to post this monster ;D
I've given it a waterproof jacket, for added security, and the list of names and address is safely tucked inside.

enjoy!!!
(and thanks again Jeannine ;D)
