Yep my seedoholic tendencies got the better of me.

Will be some time before I need to buy any more seeds.  -  or may be not. ::) ::) ::)  No golden beetroot. :P :P

Got several things which were too expensive before, and some exotics to try.

Went there today, it's no longer Wyevales, tho they're selling off Wyevales stuff cheaply. Not nearly as many seeds as in the past, but .. ... ALL AT 50P PER PACKET  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Spent £12.50, would have cost £49 full price, so I did well.  Hope it's still there next year.

They are still wyevales if you look closely (the leaf like symbol) but are going "Local".... been through ours like a dose of "Andrews"...

Just come back and done a seed audit..  :-X

I think you'll find the correct simile is "two pounds of prunes through a short grandmother".... :D

Ditto.... focussed on the expensive stuff with some spares to swap next year.....
