Default Seeds for SAE

Please help some seeds achieve their raison d'etre!

Tom Thumb lettuce - about 200 seeds left!
Tendergreen broccoli - ALL TAKEN
Chiltepin chilli - ALL TAKEN
Gardener's Delight tomato - about 50 seeds
Marketmore cucumber - ALL TAKEN NOW
California Wonder Sweet Pepper - about 20 left.

I have basically over-ordered and I can't possibly use them all before they go out of date. They are from reputable seed companies and are all in date.

In the interests of making the best use of them, let me know roughly how many seeds you want and I will decant them from the packet - I'd be surprised if anyone needs 500 Tom Thumb, but you never know

I will copy any growing info from the packet and include it with the seeds.

Please send me a PM and I shall reply with my address. Seeds will be sent asap on receipt of an SAE - they are all pretty small seeds, so a smallish envelope with a 1st or 2nd class stamp should suffice.

I'd be really pleased if they could to go to a productive home

When they're grown up, you might tell them about me and send a photo
*sobs*

Default seeds

Hi,

I would love to have a go with your cucumber & sweet pepper seeds (20 or so will do of the pepper). If I send an SAE, would you like any of:

Aubergine , 'early long purple 2' (30 or so seeds)
Mizuna - salad leaf (about 50 seeds)
Pea - 'hurst green shaft' (about 50 peas)
various unusual tomatoes - yellow, tigerella, plum (a few of each)
?

thanks

Ru

Thanks but I really dare not take any more seeds, though - they are coming out of my ears!

You are very welcome to have some cucumber and pepper seeds, though.

Please send me a Private Message - click on "Cutecumber" and it will come up as an option. This will help me keep all of the requests in the same place.

OK, guys, I am really confused now...

I have two SAE's from people and I have no idea who they are.

If you have sent me an SAE in the last few days, please could you say who you are - i.e. your username, and to whom your corresponding envelope was addressed.

Help a poor simple fool on a Friday

Thanks.

I think I have send my details to everyone who has PM'd me - if I haven't, then shout!

Dear Cutecumber
Many thanks for the Tom Thumb lettuce seeds and many thanks for taking the time to provide the growing instructions.

By the way you sent the seeds to Jodan (Joanne!)

Right, I've got yet another mysterious SAE with a name and address that bears no resemblance to anyone who has asked for seeds...

If you have sent me an SAE addressed to a male person in London E5, please could get in touch and tell me what you want me to send!!

Thanks.
