Another one here! I look at them, turn them round, count them. I always feel I've been restrained and only sown 4 toms in the pot then I look and find 6 seedlings - the ones I put in 'for good luck' or 'just in case' - you'd think I'd know better by now!

Oh yep me too. Causes great hilarity round here

Me too. We had the man round the other day to change the elec meter...and I was having a mental breakdown at the time and as I had no electricity for a half an hour or so I just stood and started at the seedling tray trying to calm down.

It was 10 mins though before I realised that 2 cayennes had popped their heads through.

I must have been really really angry to not even notice for so long.

I keep looking at my newly sprouted beans...they're so lovely when they are so little.

I clearly need to get out more - I used to spend my days ogling young male students and now they just pass me by.

Yep I am always popping into spare room to check my seeds been in there sorting out a bit so I can get more trays on the shelves. It was acraft room but as I dont do much of that now I have turned it into a seeds room. lol

Such a comfort to know I'm not the only one.

Wait till teenage boys catch you muttering at your seeds to encourge them. Then you will know the meaning of silly

I'm sure my OH thinks I have a problem. I give him an update everytime he walks through the door.

Everytime I walk through the dinning room (every five minutes) I have to check them on the windowsill. I can`t belive how fast they have germinated. The only problem now is I want to get them in the garden and it`s not time yet.

Yous lot are so funny, you make me giggle (yeah I'm a seed oggler too!)

I know the feeling sharon, its too cold for them i wish its was warmer.......

I'm a seed voyeur too! It's like I'm willing them to pop their heads up. Then I get so excited when they do, I have to tell everyone and they look at me as if I've gone totally insane (maybe I have) The lid gets lifted off the propagator at least half a dozen times a day and I'm sure that's not helping germination. I think I might join seed sighting anonymous!!
