My DH thinks it is quite strange, how excited I get at new seeds arriving in the post! It is much better than getting new shoes, because they generally don't fit anymore when you get them home! :wink:

I try, but I rarely am. :oops:

However, I do have a spade for you Seedling. We'll have to meet up for a coffee halfway to exchange goods!

I'll PM you.

I've been using my wonderful long handled spade for years. I love it, but I may go and buy a fork if there's any left. I could do with one of those.

I did something silly a few weeks ago. I'm going to Barcelona in June and saw a gorgeous frock in the charity shop so bought it cos we're going to a very posh restaurant. Thought I wouldn't get in wearing my usual jeans.

Then it dawned on me. I don't possess a pair of shoes. I possess one pair of wellies, one pair of walking books, one pair of trainers and a pair of slippers. I've got to buy a pair of shoes now....... maybe I should take the dress back. I haven't worn a dress for 12 years so why break the habit.....
Lots of love

Hope you ladies are right about these spades just bought one in Morecambe, lots left but then Morecambe isn't on many people's beaten path.

Lizzie, just a suggestion for posh footware...

look on ebay for wellies and you will come across some lovely polka dot wellies.... with heels!!

Someone is confused, but is it me or the designer? :shock:

I've seen those Di. The pair of wellies I really want are black, with sparkly skull and crossbones on the sides :twisted:

I can do shoes Lizzie - at least 150 pairs - as long as you are size 4 or 4 and a half. :o :shock: :D

Chanters and Seedling - when and where?
