I'd have liked to go VC, but I have family down tomorrow. How come they haven't listed it on their site?

[veggiechicken]

Who hasn't listed it Mikey? Seedy Saturday - Chapter
Bring the family and swap them for something

[darcyvuqua]

ooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh VC you have gone and done it now!!!! might have to drop the bomb on the wife that im popping out in the morning

[veggiechicken]

Let me know if you're coming darcy - and wear a carnation so I'll recognise you

[ladylottie]

Sorry, can't come along - it's my walking day with the Ramblers. One day we might get to meet up, VC and other Welsh grapes!

[veggiechicken]

We must get something organised. There are enough of us around now to have a party

[darcyvuqua]

do they sell seedlings/plug plants VC never been to one of these type things

[veggiechicken]

It really is Potluck, darcy. Depends on who brings what. Last year I bought some perennial (Babington) leeks and a thornless blackberry and some special seeds, but I also swapped some of my seeds for others - including some from the Heritage Seed Library. Its really about swapping rather than buying.

Hope the Seedy Satuirday goes well - We are trying to resurect our Seedy Sunday, held in 2009, 10 and 11, not last year though. If we get up and running I will post so that Cleveland area Grapes will know in good time.

I really wanted to come but wow what a night last night just to say I will not be there my youngest has chicken pox (3 years old) and kept us up all night I hate that we have to let her ride the spots out wish I could take them away for her

[veggiechicken]

Hope you get your seedswap resurrected a-a. They really are worthwhile.

Darcy, sorry to hear about your little girl. Hope she's better soon. Give her a cwtch from me.
There were no chilli plants on sale - I did look. Quite a lot of chilli seeds, including nameless ones still in their pods
It was a good morning

[darcyvuqua]

Im quite dissapointed but family must come first! she has had a few spots since wednesday but there out in force and have just started popping and becoming itchy so the greenhouses have yet again taken a back seat i will eventually get them up had a good day laying a base yesterday Im hoping to get up there to lay the second one tomorrow now

[veggiechicken]

There'll be another seed swap but with luck, this will be the only time your daughter has chicken pox (I had it twice - but I'm greedy)
Family first, always!!
