Barb & Others who think the above.
If you read the first paragraph of my posting i stated that there are several 
List Members who have asked me for a copy of my Seed Inventory. These 
requests were sent to me via private e mail as these people wanted to keep 
some anonymity from the Mailing Lists with their requests. I do agree that i 
should be sending the Seed Inventory to these people via private e mail but 
there are more than, as i stated, several List Members interested in the Seed 
Inventory. I cannot remember all of the people who have asked for my Seed 
Inventory and i can't find the list i made of who wanted a copy of it 
therefor i posted on the Mailing Lists.

I have no hidden agendas by making my Seed Inventory public on the Mailing 
Lists, after all that is what the Mailing Lists are all about is it not and 
why should i not make such contributions to the Mailing Lists anyway. As 
usual my postings to the Mailing Lists have been read with suspicion by some 
List Members who i am sure will be firing at me again. It maybe a case that 
most List Members just want to see contributions to the lists from their 
close friends and not from some limey that lives on the other side of the 
Atlantic Ocean.

If we are required to just sit on the fence and read postings to the Mailing 
Lists and not contribute to them then i am not sure why the Mailing Lists 
exist in the first place. PLEASE do not read this posting with the thought 
that i am angry whilst typing it, i am just so frustrated that almost every 
posting i make to the lists has to be seen as though i have hidden agendas or 
that i am on the make.

If people do not want to read my Seed Inventory then click on delete it is as 
simple as that. On a lighter note, thankyou to those of you that have sent 
private postings to me regarding the first parts of my Seed Inventory. I will 
be continuing today if all goes well. If you are one of the List Members who 
i have promised Seeds to i have not forgotten about you and i will be sending 
your Seeds as soon as possible. And before anyone gets the wrong impression, 
i promised to send Seeds to several List Members quite some time ago and it 
is NOT in response to my posting my Seed Inventory, ok.

BEST WISHES
MIKE TURNER
AWAITING ALL THE ABUSE AGAIN
