Seed Catalogues
« on: October 17, 2011, 17:11:20 »

Is it me or is it the fact that the nights are drawing in that you are finding yourself pawing over the seed catalogues?   so far I have managed (in my head that is) to cover every square inch...how I am actually going to do this is another thing!! fortunately have not placed any orders yet  :)

Do you think that seed catalogues are the equivallent to crack cocaine for gardners only - not illegal, expensive or damaging to your health? ;D ;D

I know exactly what you mean . . . . ive been sat looking through them for days now - trying to resist the temptation to buy loads of stuff i really dont need . . . or want!

I just want to be out in the garden, cant wait for spring to arrive :)

Yeah... it's dreadful, apart from spuds adn some stuff I'll pick up in swaps I've got all my seed for next year already.... so the Suttons, T+M , Unwins etc catalogues dropping through the door are like being sent porn mags for a fetish you don't have.......

When mine come I put them staright in the recycling unless of course they have £5 voucher inside.
A few years ago I ordered a Moles catalogue and it lasted me all winter ;D
