Came home today to four... copies of ones I had already received before Christmas. Wastes resources, but at last the DT Brown one is non-shiny paper so can be composted

I got the Mr F one through the post yesterday - I limit myself to this one as it's the company we get a discount for through our association supplier!
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

3 to date but the DT brown one is always my favorite, any others that are sent are simply a waste of money for the suppliers as DT gets my order every time.
never been let down and seeds and or plants always top class.
last year the DT Brown leek plants were sold out so i bought elsewhere - needless to say they were rubbish, the first batch they sent out were practically dead and the second batch looked ok but have still not thickened to a size where i can harvest - so i made sure that my leek order was placed back with DT Brown on the day the catalogue came out

Call me grumpy, ("You're grumpy"), but seed catalogues through the post annoy me. I always browse and order on line and most of the ones I use seem to follow up with a printed catalogue at this time of year.

As someone engaged in a pastime closely associated with the good Earth, I view this as a waste of resources.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Especially when you have already received a copy and they send you another one after you have made an on-line order!!!!! ARGGHHH!!
