    I was excited when I came across "SeedsUK", buying seed by the unit seemed ideal for me so I drew up my list and plastic card in hand I attacked the site enthusiastically...

    A slight hiccup, nothing in stock!

    I know they source most of their seed from "moles seed" or didn't they for this season?

    A lot of seed I need now or within 2 weeks or so and I want fresh seed so I'll have to source elsewhere.

    Luckily I bought the very early stuff late last year (from elsewhere) :)

    Just another thanks to David for the link, just placed my order. I did intend only to buy the last remaining veggie seeds and spuds I needed-of course I accidentally added the angel fishing rods to the order, couldn`t help myself ahem.
