Took some out - put some in -  so it's quite a sizeable parcel moving on (tomorrow am, hopefully) to a gal with a very appropriate surname  ;D

OO the quote doesnt mean much to me (being a bloke)- whats your surname?

Gardiner is my surname... Gardiner by name, Gardener by nature! LOL ;D  Don't think i will ever get married with my obsession with growing veg - couldnt possibly lose my surname!

Think I'm still on the list too!

You aren't last OO and Cornykev you are on the list XX Jeannine

Well I still havent had any post... must go and feed the chooks now but I'll let you know if it arrives. ;D

Whoah, slow down there OliveOil - I only got it yesterday pm  ;D - and it went back in the post first class this morning, so hopefully it should be with you tomorrow/ day after.

I had great fun with it - hope you do too (mind you, OH's face when he came in to a kitchen table covered in seeds, rather than dinner, suggests too many pass-the-parcels might spell the end of marriage for me too  ;D ;D)

Fingers crossed for tomorrow - at work on thursday :'(  I wish i didnt have to!

ooo the list is getting shorter  ;D tee hee ...

... hope you all had a great Easter break ... think I have some TLC to administer after a few days away ... and what a chance to repalce some that croaked !!   :D

Jeannine,

HSL

?

HSL = Heritage Seed Library  a part of the Henry Doubleday Research Association (HDRA) now calling itself 'Garden Organic'

The HSL saves veggie seeds which are under threat e.g. being withdrawn from commercial catalogues, to protect the genetic varieties for the future.

I have been a member for some years, money well spent and, in my view, a good cause. As a member of HSL you are entitled to 6 packets of seed free each year, but if there is something in particular you are looking for they are very helpful in locating a source. They are also very helpful in answering growing/cropping questions .... in a mini RHS sort of way
