..... with £10 in my purse, just enough to only buy the 4 bags of 60ltr compost I needed (it's the only way to stop me spending on things I'd like but we don't need 
) but it was cold, and so I grabbed my jacket which I'd left in the truck, put it on, put my hand in my pocket and found ...... a £1 coin 
Now there isn't much for less than a fiver, never mind £1, in our garden centre.
I tried to walk towards the entrance! I promise! I did! But my legs walked me to the seed section and so I thought "Well there's no harm in looking" and horror of horrors ALL the seeds were half price! Even worse, there was this packet of trully beautiful Amethyst Dwarf French Beans, all on its' lonesome' on its' hook needing a new home for 95p
For sowing mid April to July (well it's still July - just about), this variety is, apparently, suitable for containers. So, I reckon I'm going to sow them tomorrow in the greenhouse and then plant them into a couple of the builders buckets we use as planters because these have handles which means that when the cukes are finished in the greenhouses, I'll be able to move the bean tubs into the greenhouse for extra protection, giving me time to grow a decent crop of lovely purple pods

I think most of us are seedaholics.
