funnily enough whenever I am frequenting one of those establishments I usually get asked .. where are the xxx, or do you have any yyy?
I've come to conclusion that I must look like a gardener!
I always end up at the David Austin roses getting asked for recommendations - think its because I go round sniffing every open bloom Either that or I too should be wearing a green tee shirt

I always get asked "Are you alright there?". Garden centres must put me into such a medative state that I clearly look lost. Or derranged.
Nothing can beat the chat up line I got in B&Q once though - "I don't usually see such a lovely rose among my roses" - I was seriously in tracksuit bottoms and a scruffy t-shirt.
Yay for Wyevale though! It's my local. I shall now avoid it like the plague, lest I buy any seeds. Ooo wait, I do need some sweetcorn...

Fraid I succumbed yesterday and bought a big terracotta pot, leaf sacks, some dwarf bean seeds and cerinthe seeds which I will only buy at half price. They are my favourite and have lost them in the garden and didn't save seed. On idea why they are always so dear.
Oh and I did by a Yankee candle - all half price bargains.
I ordered flower plug plants from them yesterday as are half price. I'll go and collect them in March. No obligation to buy if not satisfied so worth a try.
