Evert - the round robin is on its way to Denmark so should be on it's way to you soon.
lilith
just got the rr back to me 'return to sender'. seems to have been a problem in danish customs. i am checking with deborah madsen to see if her address is correct and will be sending it out as soon as i've got that confirmation. well done and thanks to all of you that have taken part so far - there's a great selection of seeds there! hope we can do another sometime, without holdups!
best wishes

Lilith, I got the RR today from debbie.
I'm gonna send it in 2 separate envelopes because there was so many seedbags! And I put them all to new envelopes. I send them tomorrow. I think the postage fee is quite high because they are quite heavy.
I hope they arrive without problems---
LILITH:
I sent the letters about 5 mins ago in hte post.. they will leave in 17:00 o'clock mail. (in about 10 minutes ;))
The bigger envelope I sent in 2nd class and the smaller in 1st class mail. So, let me know when they arrive.
Thanks for the RR.
thanks evert! hope you enjoyed looking through them! i hope it wasn't too expensive to send and i hope you'll take part in another one!
It wasn't too expensive.. or it would be if I'd send the bigger envelope in 1st class mai.. Gosh - Finland is too expensive country. Hey think, a dinner in restaurant for 3 people can cost here something like 200-400 FIM but in India we can get same amount of good food with 50 FIM! drinks included! Ööö
Lilith, let me know as soon as the first envelope arrives
the first envelope (priority) arrived this morning. thanks evert!

So soon!? Great! :) Finland and UK has really good postal network... :)
Do you get mail in saturdays too? Unfair... :( Funny if I think, sometimes a 1st class letter here in Finland takes 3 days to deliver. and usually 2 days sometimes a day. Ok, very interesting...
yeah, we get mail saturdays, but not sundays.. i've not received the second package yet, but i'll let you know when i do.
