If you have one of these remaindered book shops in your town they have the bargain buckets of seeds out again... channelling the spirit of "Wyvale!" 50p a packet... lots of flowers but enough veg to get me interested. OH was with me so I just got to firkle not buy...  ::)

Update: seeds are now 4 packets for £1.

They are Johnsons/Mr Fothergills.

I bought sweetpeas, nasturtiums (some nice varieties) and parmex-type carrots. Exercised great restraint and only spent £1 but already have a hooog collection of seeds.
