It's not my fault! Seedfest have an offer on where you buy 50 pkts of random seeds for just under £10 and 20 pkts of herbs for £5. I blame DJBrenton for mentioning them in the first place.

Yay! Can I bags the Danvers half long please? I know I got some too but I really fancy growing lots of them.

I'm also really interested to see how many of what you got are different to my package. I'd sort of assumed that everyone got the same.

Can I also suggest you withdraw the pink brandywein, a better tasting tomato you're unlikely to try!

Everybody who pm'ed me up to 10pm last night has got what they requested (apart from the brandywine tomatoes several people wanted those and there were only a few seeds)  and they'll be in the mail today (if I remember)

Thanks hawhaw, carrots are the one thing you don't get enough of with seedfest. I'll have enough now. BTW I've got your package ready apart from the anasazi which are still in the US. I'll send them when the beans arrive.

Hawhaw, how long did your seeds take to arrive from seedfest.
I ordered mine Monday, they were showing dispatched on Tuesday - now Saturday and no sign....
Starting to worry a little  :-\

Thanks HawHaw, I've just come back from a week away to find a nice little envelope from you.
And inspired by you I ordered the mystery stuff from seedfest which came this morning - ordered well over a week ago grubby hobit (they come from America) and now have more seeds than I can shake a stick at.
Some fantastic names and a plethora of squashes !!! ;D

Aha! Didn't spot they were coming from the US!
Just slightly over-excited to be honest, waiting for the postman to come to see what I'm going to get in my mystery parcel!

They had a base in Scotland but they closed it a while back.
