So mine are already to go. Will post when i take the dogs out.

I put a few commercial seed packs in.
Those that I thought had more in than you would use Ive split and put into separate envelopes to share equally.
Im writing these down so that I remember you may not want them again.
So 7 parcels each containing:
Pony tails amaranth
Coral fountain amaranth
Vebena hastata - s/s fab getmination.
Saponaria - white
Euphorbia marginata - snow top
Primula candelabra - ( hoping to get these going myself at the moment)
Orach plumes mixed
Giant yellow scabious

(The one that has been backwards and forwards to the pair of us goodness knows how many times!).
But you will get the same old stamp. I cut it off and stuck it on the little box.
In case anything goes wrong, let me  know and I will reimburse you.
They've arrived and the Teflon stamp has survived another journey. Big Grin
Lots of lovely flower seeds in this box.!

Too late they're posted  Big Grin  post office lady wouldn't accept the old non barcoded stamp even though she accepted there was a grace period till end July.  She sold me the extra stamps and said to put in the postbox it would go ok, but her system wouldnt accept the old stamp. She was livid at Royal Mail for making her job difficult.

Nope. I'm not doing anything with the packets except randomly sharing them out. Shame about the stamps. Jobsworth.;D

My fault for not venturing out into the rain to buy any while I've been off, but I'm now on nights and dealing with another big leak in my house.

When was the deadline again?

Check your covid test boxes - there's usually plastic sealable bags in them Smile

They've arrived and Frank didn't notice them. I expect the motley collection of stamps confused the poor chap. Big Grin

Your Frank is a waste of space thank goodness. Not sure you'll be able to reuse the box though.

I'm sure it will be of use, somehow - even if you receive 2 packages. Big Grin
