I received my copy the other day, all well and good.
Today I saw it on sale in Tesco with 5 free packets of seed.

They hardly ever put in seeds that I've run out of anyway. It is usually more of the common cherry tomatoes, or chilli peppers, and I must have ten packets of basil from freebies. What did you get Ron?

I didn't buy another copy as the seeds then wouldn't be free, would they ? :wink:

Thanks Snooky, I don't think I've missed much. I've decided to make a concerted effort to use up most of the seeds I already have this year and not buy any new ones. I think I'll get rid of the oldest by mixing them all together and broadcasting them as a green mulch and see what comes up.
