Ratte seed potatoes

Has anyone on here bought ratte seed potatoes this year?
If so could you put a picture of them on here.
I made a shocking discovery at the weekend when I was in a garden centre. :ohmy:

Yes there are hardly any grown yet I have seen them in shops. If someone can post a picture of ones they have bought I might be able to explain it. :)

Aww c'mon, just tell us what you heard.  :tongue2:  :D
I demand the right to buy seed of varieties that are not "distinct, uniform and stable".

Just read this and unfortunately I planted mine t'other day. Do you think they were masquerading as Ratte then?  I got them from Dobbies, just a small bag for planting in a big tub.  If you want I could go and get one out and take a pic
