The doorbell rings and here is the UPS guy w/ 650 Van Engelen daffs. are they insane? What are those thangs doing here already? I immediately called VE and they said their last ship date was end of Oct. and while very polite, their position is that I am SOL. I don't remember ever receiving daffs this early, they always get here early Dec.

Do you think I can keep them in a dark place for another month? They are going in a new bed and I haven't even started working on that--and won't as there are 3-4 projects ahead of the new daff bed.

your suggestions will be appreciately. I am peeved at VE but being that I ordered them in June, I can't remember the details, like who took my order, what was the delivery date, etc. All I know if that they didn't seem too sympathetic to my plight and that after all is said and done, I am staring at 650 daffs, so I must make lemonade out of this lemon. oh Lordie!
