If there is any confusion with staff about the price, it has been arranged by Richard Jayne the branch manager. Sheds will be delivered for free.

Alternatively, if you wish to wait for the gates, please order and pay for your shed and we will arrange a bulk delivery after the gate is up - liaise with Simon.

If you would like to order seeds from Dobie's, I am planning to order some next week. I have catalogues and order forms - get in touch if you want one.

If we spend over £50 we get 1/3 off the SEEDS only.

I need your orders this weekend if we are to send off a group order on 5th April.
