Blimey - that was quick - just received my prize goodies today (Thurs.). Thanks GYO they're lovely!
I got 3 books, a DVD & 8 packs of herb, salad & veg. seeds.
The books are :-
'View From A Shed' by Michael Wale - a book of tales from urban allotments with lovely watercolour sketch illustrations - looks like a good read.
'Wildlife Gardening For Everyone' from the RHS &Wildlife Trust - just up my street with lots of good ideas including a 'wildlife tower' made from old pallets stacked on top of one another with straw, logs, bamboo, bricks,pots etc. in the gaps to make homes for wildlife - I would love to do this if the garden was bigger - just have to make do with a log pile & various bug houses.
'Recycle The Essential Guide' lots of interesting ideas including making your own wormery from a dustbin.
The DVD is Gardening Tips from Steve Brookes & I'm looking forward to trying the Basil 'Mrs Burns Lemon' which sounds interesting & the Golden Sunrise yellow tomatoes which I've never grown.
Thanks again.
