    From the parcel (the previous time) I had some Platycodin (sp) seeds, bell flowers I think they can be called. Anyway they are doing really well and are nearly ready to be planted out.

    Whoever gave the seeds, how tall do they grow please?

    Parcel has arrived today. I'll get it in the post tomorrow to Adam.

    I'm putting it in a regular envelope, but a double envelope for safety sake.

    Thanks Adam...received today.

    Parcel arrived this morning..very well packaged but I think one of the packets inside has split, I have not opened it as yet but will do that tonight when I have a little more time to do it properly/carefully.

    Here's a pic of how it looks.

    I'll update later tonight or in the morning.

    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 Jo for everyone, as an emergency( I already have a few.... 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.

    Jo - Sweetpeas is ably handling things. Chengjing is the originator. Take your pick :)
