Thank you Michael. Now that I've broken the ice maybe it will become a habit.

My seeds arrived today!! ;D  ;D so excited!
20 firsts 4 seconds and one I didn't pick... ??? I laughed that the one I didn't pick was number 666 , I wonder of they were trying to tell me somthing  ;)  I was hoping for #686 calceolaria Walter shrimpton , wondering if anyone that was looking for bulbinella hookeri received my much wished for calceolaria ?  Oh the joy of seeds! Glad I managed to get my chadwell seeds and holobec seeds sown last weekend!

I just wanted to quickly thank everyone involved in the seed exchange. They arrived yesterday. I am very happy and most have already been dealt with. Again a big thanks to everyone involved.

If it were not for Maggi's link I wouldn't have a clue what you're talking about Nicole. I hope you're not thanking me for the seeds. I know NOTHING!

Yay! Will's allocation arrived yesterday - 14 first choices which is quite good considering how late we were lodging our orders.
Thanks again, Maggi, for your help and a big thanks to the seed team.
Now when will that Shade-house be completed? ;D
Most of the bulb seed has to wait till the weather cools down anyway - at least another 2 months before we can consider sowing them.
cheers

My seeds arrived this morning Maggi. The postmark is Edinburgh 16 January so the delay was in the postal system. My thanks to everyone involved in the seed distribution project for the wonderful job they do.

Oh joy....

My seeds arrived this morning. Thank you so much. :-*
And I was really quite surprised that I got 14 of my first choices and two of my second choices - considering I only just made the cut-off date.
Now their little lives are in my hands - OMG!
I have never taken part in a seed exchange before but it seems so much more important to get it right considering the amount of effort that has been given by all of the volunteers involved.
I will be very careful.

Thanks Nicole, and after me saying elsewhere that several Forumists tease me, I didn't recognize it! Still nothing up! ;D
