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.
Subscriptions eh ?

WestHamRon. As I have the digital version, I seem to loose out on the freebie seeds.

Sounds like something else Tescos are causing trouble over.

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 ?

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.
