Has anybody seen the parcel?  As it was passed on nearly 10 days ago I would have hoped it will be arriving somewhere else soonish .....

Hi

I had a large white envelope turn up this morning at my new address and it looks like its packed with seeds as some have leaked out and stuck to the sticky take.

Luckly the re-direct is in place till the end of the week as i dont know what might happen.

Will go through this in the next few days and have it back in the post to kings lynn as soon as i can.

I think that could be a different swop - when it came to me it was in a box, not an envelope. But that was ages ago.

Oh how confusing!

Cam - I think you have the "best of" swap, if memory serves me right it moved into an envelope a few stops ago after somebody at royal mail played football with the box.  The addresses should be on white sticky lables if it is and according to my records King's Lynn was the next stop so I am glad it found you at your new home and hope you are settling in alright.

Susiebelle - sorry to confuse matters even more but I am certain you have another swap unless there has been a bit of a time shift somewhere, apparently you had the "best of" parcel ages ago, before xmas!  I don't know which parcel you have but I hope that you feel better soon and find lots of nice things in there.

Ding Ding, next stop King's Lynn  :D :D

Hi Susiebelle

I think you were also on the swop for 3 sisters which DebP would have posted to you this week?

As Susiebelle  posted the parcel 10 days ago I would hope it had arrived by now, any sightings?

I have PM'd the lucky lady in Kings Lynn and will let you know when I have confirmed the address, sometimes the post office do this just to wind you up, they have an odd sence of humour.

Hope you enjoyed the parcel Cambourne :-)

Hello  ;D I had forgotten about the seed swop and for a little while I was a bit bewildered, anyway thank you Blue Bird for passing it on to me, I will be passing it on to Leeds on Monday, it was so exciting looking at all the different seeds.
