Seed Catalogues

How did I miss the excitement of this through my life so far?  Reading Seed Catalogues on a rainy Saturday afternoon.  I know it's probably all on-line but the paper versions are an absolute joy.

Boring everyone stupid with long rambling discussions on the pros and cons of F1 Hybrids and the tyranny of the seed suppliers in effectively making sure that us gardeners can't collect seeds if we follow the F1 route.  I'm not totally sure yet but I'm probably going the 'real seed' route.
