Title: Sending seeds abroad.
Post by: grannyjanny on May 21, 2010, 07:44:51
In January I sent my friend a large parcel of seeds & a couple of flower pouches. She lives in Portugal. We were both very disappointed that they didn't arrive. I have just spent a wonderful week with her & phoned her yesterday to thank her & let her know I was back home. Amazingly the seeds arrived with her yesterday.

I phoned my dad last night to wish him happy birthday and my mum said I thought you'd gone on holiday. It transpires that although his cards were posted near home they were franked Gatwick! Thats about 40 miles away.
