Am working from our Bletchley office (nr Milton Keynes) today and went
into the little town.

They have seed packets for 49p new (wilko brand), couldn't resist
bought some white lisbon salad onions and some radishes . Also bought
a back of 12 Geranium plugs for £2.70

These seem like real bargains to me or have I been fooled by discount
shopping fever !

I got two packs for £5. I've had no trouble with them before.

My 15 geranium 15 for £1.99 from Morrisons - potted up, spent a few weeks in
my south-facing porch and today spent their first day outside hardening off.

Wow, Bletchley. I love Bletchley! I do loads of gigs there - Bletchley Working Mens Club, the Windmill Golf Club, the Scot Sports and Social Club, the Obelix Centre. Damn M1 roadworks are a pain though.

And those seeds / bulbs I brought from Wilkinsons have been actually quite good. The daffs were hardy. For that sort of money not much to lose really.

gutted 15 for £1.99

Oh well I probably wouldn't have room for those extra 3

I'm just going to sulk now

Glad somebody likes it. I spent enough time at Bletchley Park. I
thought it was the end of the earth.
