Latest moan from me and you!!!

Thanks was looking forward to poppy, cornflower and poached egg plants this Summer. I'll have to nip into Wilkinsons and start again (if it's not too late). They have all their seeds on display at the moment. The wind here is awful - up to 90 mph - and living on a hill doesn't much help! Every cloud has a silver lining - the wood burner is 'drawing' well.

 

I was watching the bubble wrap moving inside mine through the window, that winds a booger.

 

Im sure its not too late clanless,i can send you an orange periennal poppy plant if you want that ive divided,looks similar to california poppy,i might have a spare papavar orientale aswell(red) you can have(Pm ur address),also try http://stores.ebay.co.uk/premierseedsdirect/.. they are as cheap as wilkos and might have more varity,only 59p postage aswell x

 

@clanless ....i've got some Cornflower seeds and Poached egg plant seeds if they're any good to you.....give me a shout

 

Thanks very much everyone - you're all very kind - especially as I'm a new forum member who hasn't contributed much at all. I don't want to impose on anyone, so I'll have a look on the e-bay site recommended by joolz68. I do appreciate the offers though .

Weather has calmed down a bit here in North Wales - still gusty though. The wind last night dislodged a roof tile - so we didn't get away with it entirely.

 

The offer is there if you can't find what you're after @clanless ...no worries

 

@fat controller .....do you buy seeds you don't even want or have the space for?...I do

 

Just one of those small irritations which make life interesting...

My car battery gave up a couple of days ago. So, new battery fitted and off we go.

Radio/CD player needs re-setting. No problem, look in owner's manual, find code, put code in......'Incorrect Code'.

The code written in the owner's manual was not the right code. So, pop in to the local dealership (from where I originally bought the car) on the way home from work today, and ask them to contact the manufacturers for the correct radio code.

"Certainly sir, there will be a charge of £25 for that".

Erm, I don't think so. I purchased this car from you. You supplied me with an owner's manual which contains an unlock code which is incorrect.

"Ok, I'll just go and have a word with the salesman who dealt with your purchase".

Please do.

"It's ok sir, I've spoken to the salesman and he's authorised us to do it free of charge".

My, how very generous of him. Thank you kindly.

Fair enough, it was all sorted out in the end, but I do find it rather annoying that they would try it on like that in the first place.
