    So as to avoid confusion on the seed parcel thread, I have started up this thread for the swap


    Little MIss Road Rage has very kindly offered to be the banker.


    On this thread we post what we have on offer then send them to Little Miss, who, in turn will send them to whoever wants them. I believe she only wants the postage costs from those who want the seeds.


    So here we go-let`s hope it will go smoother.

    I'll answer your questions on here Claire:

    How do we get the postage to Little Miss?

    I can package them up, then weigh them and work out postage then u can post me stamps.

    And do we get the seeds the way they were sent or say 4/5 people want some then will you repackage them?

    I don't mind splitting them or shall we do it as a first come first served basis?

    Thanks Little Miss, what do you think of the senders splitting into sachets of say 100 approx or so? Some will be easy to count, but some will have to be on a 3pinches a pack (LOL).

    You`ll be sending them, and because I have givem myself a blood clot over on the other one, you should run this I think.

    I have packaged the larger seeds in packs of 10-12 the smaller ones in bulk to split down as you wish depending on demand also included some packets to enable you to split them down.
    I would suggest that anyone receiving seeds from Little Miss do not hastle her over germination and care of the seeds google what you can, if you need any further information on the seeds I have donated contact me through the forum and I will endeavour to answer you.
    good luck Little Miss Thanks Claire for you patience.:thumb:

    Ooh hecky thump Walnut, what a darling you are!

    I have placed an order with Li`l Miss for those poppies-they are my very favourite kinds.

    I only hope I can get some little belters you wouldn`t mind having in return.


    Thanks Walnut, and a great big smacker to Li`l Miss for agreeing to do this for us. I rather suspect this and the parcel will end up being quite a popular idea.
