    Guidelines:

    1- maximum hold time before passing on parcel, unless previously arranged is 3 days (ties in with No3)
    2- message person after you on the list before sending parcel and to the thread so we're all kept in the loop
    3- if no response to a message, move on the next person, after 3 days (Works with No1)
    4- contact details held by Steve for everyone, as an emergency(name, email, address and a phone if you wish)
    but it's not compulsery
    5- if you miss your turn, then you miss your turn, you wait til it comes round again.
    6- New joiners go to the back of the queue , i.e behind the person who currently has it ( which will mean keeping the thread up to
    date on who has is, keep it public, if you have it you post)
    7- Just keep us all informed, maybe a role call either on the thread or by me PMing, maybe with 2 chances to reply then your name is
    in red and after round of the parcel your off the list till you get in touch then No6 comes into force.
    8- Please, no out of date seeds.

    Do you want to join the list...add a post!

    Steve...:)

    As its mid june now and most seed sowing is completed by all, I propose that when the parcel gets back to me I hold it untill after autumn seed collecting is complete by most..

    Then we can have another couple of rounds before Christmas, then rest until Spring next year (2011). This keeps costs down for all.

    Between now and autuimn seed collecting I'll catalogue and publish here what the package contains, I believe more people would be interested if they knew exactly what we are posting between us.

    Please let me know what you think about this.

    Steve...:)

    I think that is an excellent idea Steve, If we can get a couple of rounds in before Christmas that would be great. :gnthb:
