[cambourne7]

thanks ladies, i love old spice :) yum and Jazz i knew a security guard at work who wore it and it always made me smile. (he looks like a bit bull if you want the visual).

Thanks harriets in bed 3rd night running with calpol i dont know how she manages such high pitched wails.. anyway i am sure it will all be over soon :)

Package will be there tomorrow but because of he size of it and the need to keep it tracked so we dont lose it posting is over £8 so i suggest that you look at sending it with a courier someone like

I estimated insurance as being about £300 :)

[grannyjanny]

The parcel has landed but I am saving my enjoyment until tomorrow morning when OH will be out. I've just messaged Jeannine about something else & told her I will keep the windows closed when I open the parcel, as I would hate the neighbours to think I had a lover in while OH is out ;).

[flowerofshona2007]

Ooooooooooooh the excitment is getting to me now  :P im like a kid at christmas here !!!!!!!!!!!!
Have fun over the weekend GJ and lets hope no one has a glass to the wall when your in sheer heaven  ;D

[grannyjanny]

Next door have an allotment but I'm not telling them I've got all those goodies in my possession ;). I'll just leave them guessing ;D.

[Jeannine]

Has anybody ever thought what it would be like to work in a seed packing establishment..would be all get done for shoplifting, think of the ways you could smuggle seeds..the mind boggles. Personally I would go for the bra trick,my rather endowed boobs could shelter quite a few escapees.

GA, you are very restrained, how can you keep from looking!!

Ah and by the way, there are a few of extra folks joining us, it is going around so fast I have invited some extras.

You know what it's almost as much fun, having had the parcel, to see everyone elses reaction. It is a fab swop.

Oooooooh I would be so tempted but I couldn't hide a poppy seed down mine Jeannine  ;D, but that would be a lovely job to have.

Now you must let us know who is joining us to help with solving the clues ???

[grannyjanny]

We were calling unexpectantly at the lotty the other day to get some potatoes. OH said have we anything to put them in, if not whip your bra off & we can clear the plot. Cheeky sod ;).

[Jeannine]

Ooo that was cheeky, he probably though his underwear  was full enough all ready.

Men are brats sometimes XX Jeannine

[Jayb]

Very cheeky of him Granny,  ;D

Someone told me once that chocolate factories would let staff eat as many chocolates as they wanted and after a short while no one touched any. Perhaps it would be the same in a seed packers, though I can't see I'd ever get tired of seeds!

Granny you are ever so calm, what time is that cheeky man of yours off out so you can get down to the exciting bit looking through the parcel and getting the neighbours gossiping  ;D

[grannyjanny]

He is very cheeky ;). 9.50 on the dot ;D ;D ;D. I now have another distraction. A bull finch appeared in the garden this morning so I will have one eye on the window ::).

[Jayb]

Just over 2 hours to go, better look at that bullfinch now because you won't have a chance later  ;D ;D ;D

[grannyjanny]

I think the bed is going to be the best place to sort through them, far more space than the dining table ;D.

[Jeannine]

Well I think I have heard it all now...taking your seeds to bed !!

Have fun and try to get some sleep too.

XX Jeannine

[grannyjanny]

Oh no. It was the female bullfinch before, now her OH half has arrived. We haven't seen them since about January or February. At least I will get a better view from the bedroom ;D.

[grannyjanny]

I have come downstairs for a breather ::).
Speachless when I opened it ;). Yeh right. I screamed as OH walked through the door at 10am. Youngest rang so was slightly delayed. He thought I had hurt myself.
Well I am having to do this in stages, back & neck problems. The windowsill is covered in peas & beans from 1 bag, OHs side of the bed  is covered with seeds from the other bag that I want, no, need. Down the middle are things I need to look up. When I've done that I will bag up & then empty the other bag out to search through the finer items & then put my seeds in.
It will HAVE to be done by 10pm but not sure it is possible.

I do hope OH isn't very hungry today :).

[Mushy Pea]

GJ gives a new meaning to seed bed.  ;D

Do you need more than a single? double? queen? King or Superking sized for this super parcel?  :D

MP

[grannyjanny]

Ours is a double, hence using the windowsill. A king size would probably do, I take up quite a lot of room ;).

[grannyjanny]

Second stage has been completed. One bag been through & we can go to bed. Second stage tomorrow. Thats the other bag. It is a wonderful swap ;D.

[Jeannine]

Oh come on Granny..they are just seeds for goodness sake. nothing to get excited about .

People will think your are strange taking on so. I am so glad I am not like that ::) ::) ::)

XX Jeannine ;D ;D ;D ;D
