Yes, yes, yes the seals made it to my neck of the woods this morning.  Sorry I couldn't let you know sooner but I met the postman as I was leaving home to come to Surrey for a few days.  But did bring all my seeds to send on with me, the package is now bulging.

Ummmmm, this will be quick as I am going to deliver the pakage to the next one on the list, hope they are home tomorrow.

I'll be delivering to about 5 miles away from Wimbledon, hope you recognise who I will be calling on.

Many thanks for organising this it really was exciting to recieve.

Liked the forest up north ruud ;D

Ooooh!  Exciting, that could be me!  Unless it's a really cryptic clue in which case I'll get me coat.  If it's me and I'm out, the cupboard under the stairs....................

OK hands up, my fab label system may have been a failure, either that or I have not explained it properly.   My intention was that the lables went from left to right rather than down the page but I don't think I wrote the numbers on it label sheet big enough.  Please can somebody print a copy of this post and put it in the parcel too.



If you have already sent the parcel on don't worry, it can be fixed, as long as the people on the right of the page get the parcel until it catches up and the correct order is resumed.

Sorry if I am teaching mother to suck eggs :-)

So very sorry to Maidstone Kent.  But hope Daisy has enjoyed her evening sorting through seeds.

Have to own up to rearranging a few people :)

But well worth the wait.

Ha ha Lauren, yes!   I hope it actually gets round a bit faster than that as it's moving pretty quickly at the moment.

BUT, thifasmom, you'd better put me back on your christmas card list as I have done you a big favour by not sending it to you next.  I shouldn't really be telling you this but just know daisy and ceres have added seeds you can't wait to get your little green fingers on ;D  ;D  ;D

yippee it arrived this morning just as i was going out, so i will be going through it this evening, will put some goodies in and put it back in the post tomorrow.

it will be heading to a small town whose railway station serves the Penistone and Hallam Lines and parts of the town were affected by the floods of June 2007 when the River Dove breached its banks.

hope my clue wasn't to cryptic :-\ :)
