Parcel that made me cry...............................

Jeannine, I'm only a "newbie" but reading some of your posts the help and guidance you have given to so many it sounds like you really deserve these and should enjoy them.   :)

Even i know you're a lovely person who is deserving of a surprise present and I'm not on here much.

You should definitely use them - they'll only get dusty on the wall! 

Enjoy  :-*

[Sinbad7]

Jeannine, you must use them.  The person who lovingly sent them to you would want you to I'm sure.

A lovely gift and well done to the person that sent them to you.

 :) how wonderful........how kind.........restores ones faith in mankind.... ;)

[Jeannine]

Hi, gosh thank you for all your kind replies. I think I will use them but not till next Spring when we get a new start.

You know.. I have always been a giver and am glad about that but I don't do accepting very well, I don't know why it is silly, so when something like this happens I get really choked up and it hard because I can't send anything in return except my thanks and good wishes.

They had a little polish this morning..fingerprints from handling..ooh..

They have gone to an  engraver to have names engraved on, you will be all there digging with me, and Grannyjanny you did a wonderful job you naughty girl..this is addition to the PM  I sent yesterday,thank you again.

They are going to be shown off at every chance.. I am giving a  couple of squash talks in the spring  at  garden centres and will take them with me to demostrate how deep to plant..  cough cough. Stop laughing I have to have something to lift the soil into the pots. Watcha bet they get admired.

Thank you for all the very kind PMs I have received too.

That will be lovely, to all be with you in name. I do hope you will talk to us as you are gardening ;).
I really enjoyed doing it for such a lovely person, quite a challenge with my computer skills. Thank you Jayb for your help even though you weren't really up to it :). Jeannine everyone jumped at the chance to join in & lovely comments were made to me about you. I am so happy that you like them.
A4A is a wonderful community & I sing it's praises at every opportunity.
Thank you those who also enclosed seeds, a lovely bonus which I shall enjoy next year.

Hi all,

Don't say much anymore, but just wanted to say it is wonderful to see people from the site come together like this to show such generosity.

After some of the things I have to deal with this restores my faith and reminds me why I set Allotments4All up all those years ago!

Enjoy your gift Jeannine (nothing to do with me!), you have obviously made a great impression on many people.

I a glad that you are so pleased with the tools, i would like to say a big thank you to Janet for arranging this i know that she put a lot of effort into arranging this and Jeannine, i think that we all agree it is not hard to find people that have been recipients of your generosity and we jumped at the chance of being able to say thank you in such a positiive way.

I haven't forgoten your generousity to me not long after you joined A4A, sending me some squash plants. You truely are an exceptional woman and was glad to have an oppertunity to thank you.

[Jeannine]

Corinne I remember sending squash plants all over the place one year.. most of them made it too.It seems like forever ago.Thank you.

Lottie dolly, seeds belong to God really, we are  just savers and sharers, so it a blessing on me to give them.Thank you, the tools will have a very great meaning to me. Mind you I shall probably bawl everytime I use them and folks will think my cheese has finally slipped of my cracker..

Hastings, I am so proud of Janet, all that work it must have taken her forever, and how it didn't slip,out is beyond me..you are good secret keepers too. What a shame if anyone blew the whistle too soon.
It must have been very hard to keep it quiet.Thank you again.

I have decided I might just hang around here a bit longer, home really is where the hearts are. ;D ;D
