Default I have won a voucher!! Yah!!

I got so excited I have won a voucher and GYO putting my "slug catcher" tip in the mag in November, cant believe it LOL!!!!

The good news is, is that my mum has bought me the subscription to GYO, so i should have the mag on my mat instead of remembering to buy it.

The £10 voucher will come in very handy!

Good luck on you.

GYO contacted me to ask if they could put my tip about allotment security in the Oct edition but they never gave me a voucher. Typical of my luck!

Just noticed that they print real names now rather than forum names as in previous editions.

I, too have won a T&M voucher for a tip in October's GYO, but I submitted a few tips, so I'll have to wait till the mag is out

Less than impressed with T&M though, they sent me the general catalogue with the voucher. I know it might sound ungrateful, but you'd think they would have sent the kitchen garden catalogue for a tip in a mag devoted to fruit and veg

I've sent an email asking for the kg catalogue, but no response. Phoned them, but all i got was an answering machine; no response from that either

Thanks Hayley I haven't managed to get my hands on a mag yet, so I haven't seen it.

Geoff, why don't you have a look on T&M's website? You can look at the Kitchen Garden catalogue online to get the relevany order numbers. I expect they haven't sent one as there isn't much you can order at the mo - the 2009 catalogue isn't out yet!
