I'll be calling my sister later today and will ask her to let me know when the seeds arrive. Angela plans to visit me in September - if you'd like to pm me your phone number Jeannine we can discuss what she could bring back for you. (My overseas calls are included in my phone package - a boon for keeping in touch with my sister and other overseas friends!).

Thanks again for your generosity  :-*.

Many thanks to Jeannine and to JayB, in anticipation.  :)

To prevent myself from holding up the progress of the parcel, I've PM-ed Jeannine to let her know when I'll be on holiday, because I'd hate to prevent anyone missing an opportunity for a late sowing or two.

Jeannine, is this the best approach? I've never participated in a swap before, but I imagine you and others know best how to make things tick along.

Thanks again for your generosity, which I hope to convert into some similar seed-sharing, either with you, others on A4A and perhaps elsewhere, in due course.  :)

No probs Trica, I will do that.

Spudbash, bit confused here.This is not the swap parcel post, it is just the notice place telling everyone the seeds they chose from my squash surplus have gone out,you chose some varieties.

The swap parcel progress is on a different posting, you didn't sign up for that so it won't be heading your way, your package  will be arriving in the normal way it won't be holding anyone up as it is just yours.

[Jayb]

A stunning offer from a fantastic lady
Thank you  :)

Thanks, Jeannine, hope, at some point, we can all send you something YOU  need  ;D

Most definitely

[Jeannine]

All I need is for you to grow them..when I first went over to the UK I was amazed at the lack of squash grown, now that might well have been the area I went to but reading the seed catalogues made me sad, but there is no doubt it is getting more and more popular all the time, just reading the posts on here testify to that.. so good growing ,lets  spread the world with squash!!

Cheers Jeannine and John,I know several people on our plot will be converted next year there have been a few nibbles this season with a couple we are growing  ,so hopefully soon such things as butternuts will be seen as staples and not exotics.
Many thanks both.

[lottie lou]

I am not totally sure, most folks who send me seeds just slip them intio a greetings card, I have had a few parcels but usually something else was in there too and the poster "forgot" to declare the seeds.The info that is available if for commercial importation and doesn't apply to small gardeners.
