It looks like the mice had the lot of my seeds so I expect a no show of shoots or very few, I have put some late spares in peat pots in the unheated greenhouse about a week ago, but I am not sure if i will get germination, as it is now quite cold, the seeds are aquadulce. Should I bring them into my shed at home where I can give them a little heat or forget it till spring?

I would bring them into the shed (if that is frostfree) because if the pots get frozen solid in the cold greenhouse, I don't think they would survive at that stage. If they germinate in the shed, it may be slightly warmer by the time they need the light to grow in the cold greenhouse.
