  • Mark1963, Where in scotland are you working? I'm nr Ayr. Have PM'd my Address for seeds. They will have to go in the next box, now, but I don't think this will be a short -term project, as long as everyone can keep up the enthusiasm, and it is appreciated.

    Ryan, good on you and Your Mum.

    Artjak, I see your point. This was something amongst the many appeals that we see every day that I could help with. I could use a little time, very little money (that I am short of myself), and hopefully make a little difference.

    Everyone, My partner has pointed out that he could also meet anyone at Preston 'Tickled Trout' junction, as M55, M65, M61 and M6 all very easily accessible from there. Initially to move my plants, (and any more) from Scotland on 1st May to Haydock, or if anyone can take further.

    Any Ideas gratefully received. Lizzie is nowhere nr us!

    I can transport seeds to a meeting point on weekends and also Fridays at the moment. I can collect from Jeannie as I'm about half an hour away from her and don't mind taking them to Carlisle/North of England or even North Lakes area or thereabouts if anyone wants to meet there.

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Nut, I will be going down to Somerset in mid May; I know you said that you could manage about 70 miles, so will look on the map to see how far that would take you, and we'll see if anyone can help there.

    If all your plants were transferred to bags, just for the journey, they would not take up much space and at a push I could take them. image

    Nut, just had a look and I'm wondering if you could get the plants to either Northampton, Luton or even Oxford; but that last one is 85 miles from you.

    Rosie, do you know anyone who does trips in that direction, I seem to remember that you travel a bit?

    Last year we had a map showing where people were located, anyone remember the name of that thread?image
