Allotments 4 All

I hope we do count pumpkins in squash Becky. I'm desperate for some!

You've probably closed the list, but my internet connection has been down and this is the first time I've seen this, so is there any chance?

Hi - the snow stopped me getting to the Post office. I managed to skid into work and although its only about a 500 yard walk from work to the PO, it was blizzard conditions over lunch and somehow a warm PC and a cup of my pumpkin soup was preferable. Tomorrow is not much better given the forecast I may not make into the next village let alone work - so I think the earliest posting date likely to be weds if thats okay with everyone.

To all those that have asked to join - yes i'll add you to the list.

Squash includes pumpkins, winter squash, courgettes, cucumbers - basically anything in curcubita.

For Jitterbug i have put mainly climbing beans in the mix with a few dwarfs as well - although I don't think the dwarf's meet the 3 sisters concept :-\


Anyway as soon as I have posted I'll let you all know on this thread.  ;D

Oh - I'll have to make up a clue as well..........thinking cap on  8)

Have you come home yet littlebabybird??

Hi LBB, have you posted the parcel on? Hope everything is ok.  ;D

Ohh it's all gone a bit quiet, hasn't it? 

I've even taken to reading the clues on other swaps I'm not involved in just to keep my hand in.  ;D

hi every one, sorry i have been quiet.
the parcel reached its next destination on the 13th feb
lbb

I have emailed the next recipient on the list. But on checking their profile they haven't been on line for a few days.

Anyway if all has gone well the parcel should be with an individual fond of a dance popular in WWII, particularly when it came over here for the first time.

 ;D I know, I know  ;D but I'll keep quiet this time.  ;) :-X :-X

Okay guys, sorry - it was me that the parcel got to and I was away.  :'( :'( But I got a lovely surpise when I got home on Saturday.  I drooled all over the seeds  :-[- did wipe it when I packed them back though ;D

But I was as good as gold this morning and its on its way again to someone who lives near a swimming poole! not east what but h...  Sorry lame clue but I am sure that the recipient will know it.

Have fun and take a pinch of the lovely heirloom tomato seed - they were wonderful this last summer and are almost a heart shape when small and then bloom into these huge tomatoes.  A bit of a mix between and beef and an italian tomato.

Thanks so much for organising this lovely swap - and I took out a bit of the "surprise" although not sure how to plant or what they taste like???

Jitterbug

yeah Jitterbug, so good to see you,

Cheerfulness must be off-line, hasn't posted with the answer to the clue yet  :)
