Yay!!! Quite exciting isn't it! I know the rough idea of it but can someone just tell me exactly the protocol etc.

Is there a list of the names and addresses in the parcel? How many seeds can you take out and how many do you replace?

Really looking forward to it!  ;D


Oh Dear, I don't think I have a protocol and etc. , also just a rough idea.
There will be a list with names and addresses in the parcel, you cross over your name when the parcel gets to you and send it to a next person on the list.
There is no limit of how many seeds you can take out and how many you put in, it is all up to you. Some people just started and they don't have lots of seeds in the first place so I expect they will take out more than put in, some people have been around for a while and I hope that they will add more interest to the parcel. Some of the packets contain lots of seeds, so you just take some, seal the pack and put it back into the parcel, but some packets initially contain a very small number of seeds, so please feel free to take the packet out.
We all depend on each other's decency and good will.

Sorry Natasha didn't mean to send you into a spin  ;D  You've explained it perfectly and it is how I expected it to be, I just thought I should check first to make sure that there weren't any rules that I might not have realised.

Thanks for doing it!  ;D

It's arrived!!!  Wheeeheee!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

I was so excited to see it today when the postman arrived.  Even my 14 year old daughter was excited!  We have had a good look through already, and will spend some time tomorrow putting in seeds. With a bit of luck it will be on it's way on Monday to Riffster - will let you know when it's gone.  Many thanks again Natasha! :D
