jumping up and down.......is it me, is it me

btw glosterwomble, had a nosey at your blog, am loving your allotment, looks really tidy, i am so never going to post a picture of mine, i will be too ashamed, especially when the planting gets really under way, i have too many plants too little space and end up shoving them anywhere they can fit. I know, not the right thing to do ;)

Thank you very much, received last night safe and sound. Even more of a suprise as i'd forgotten I'd signed up ;D Wow, what a parcel!  
I very much enjoyed looking through all the different packets and little bags with handwritten labels :)  It looks like people have been contributing very generously.  I will be sending this on at the weekend, can't remember off the top of my head who was next on the list but will check and post here.

(and thanks for the compliment on my name - mum was reading Dylan Thomas when she was pregnant- sadly I'm not Welsh or Geordie)

Hi all, new girl here:

I'm growing some tasty Hungarian Black chillies (like the ones on this page: http://www.readytogrow.co.uk/seeds/p_Hungarian_Black_Chilli.html (http://www.readytogrow.co.uk/seeds/p_Hungarian_Black_Chilli.html)) which I've actually germinated and raised from seed outside so they must be quite tough 'uns. I may only have a couple of spare plants but would happily swap them for some other variety (if anyone has an orange habanero to swap for them, that'd be perfect). I'm based in Cardiff (Plasnewydd/Roath).

Will also be saving seeds as I've grown them from my own for the last 3 years.

I have to say Dawn, it is lovely to see a parcel that makes it all the way around.

Thank you for arranging this and for letting me join in earlier in the year, i am already starting to save seeds from the tomatoes i am growing now, ready for round 3
