Paging Steve Auvache

Steve,

Did you get sorted out with any sweet peas?

Only next door neighbours haven't got any anymore - they're Polish,
probably eaten them.

And SWMBO is going over to see her Dad soon - he seems to every type of
seed on the planet.

If you still want some - I'll get her to see if he's got any.

Not free ones no.

Unlikely as they are slightly poisonous.

Please. Bear in mind though the important word here is perennial.

 

Don't think it would bother them - have you tried proper polish
vodka.......

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Already noted, mate.

I'll let you know.

Dave

 

aren't they unscented?

 

Big Dave wrote

Ho yuss. Been there, done that, got the stains on me boots to prove it.

Obligatory innit, at some time in your life you just have to prove how
hard you are and get yourself, albeit temporarily, outside a bottle of
120 proof.

Ta.

 

Dunno - I don't do plants.
SWMBO does that bit.

I believe so. Or only lightly at best. I want them for display not
smell.

 

/VERY/ temporarily in my case - it hardly had time to warm up....

Stuffing vodka in the freezer, before you drink it, is a neat trick
innit?

Dave

 

Have you tried putting fag ash in it?

Yes.
But only due to very poor disco lighting.

Which rather fits in with my own philosophy that it's only practical use
is as barbecue lighter fuel.

 

SWMBO had at look through her Dad's collection of seeds.
Loads of sweet peas - no perennial sweet peas though.
Sorry, mate.
I'll keep an eye and ear open though.

No worries. Sooner or later I'll come across them, they grow wild on
the South Coast somewhere.

 

Has he got any burgundy ones? Owen's been after some of them for
years.

I grew some from seeds bought at Chelsea, 10 or 12 yrs ago... A

wish I'd written the name down... :-(
