    hi people thank you for the input,
    andi&di,you may well be right,and they in league with sewer rats
    quark1,i don't sleep to well as it is,could i now know why i only cope with the basics of a mobile,so i would freek out at a camera one,and yes the plant in question is very fasinating,it seems to change all the while,the flat wide leader shoot,has now split into 2,and 1 of them looks like it going to split also,the leader ends look like flowers,but is only full of tiny courgetts,trying to grow,and going knowhere,with tiny leaves encircling them,had a word with said son,apparently I do have usb ports,what ever and where ever,they are,see the extent of my knowledge .
    sewer rat,you are lucky yours are still producing courgetts,my ones would not be of sale size/quality,my FREACK is really struggling,it seems to be very frustrated trying to fruit any place it can within the flat wide shoot thing,good job i am not reliant on it,as i have others with more than i need,i am treating it as a novalty,on 1 side of the 3 end bits looks just like a row of teeth or finger nails,is just the little yellow courgetts,a good 1/2 in long.
    daylily,thank you for that,it did get frosted one night,then again so did some others on the plot without mutating.
    If there is anyone north/outskirts leicester city,would like to,snap and post some pictures,please feel free to pm me,
    thanks again,i am so fast,has took me an hour to write this reply

      So now it has teeth & fingernails?!~maybe best take Quark's advice on the sleep front~or at least keep one eye open!!LOL
      Just an idea,but maybe plucking at straws~as lots of courgette seed are F1 hybrids maybe a freak seed got through the net?! we've got one of last years has selfseede & it's going mad~nothing like yours but also only similarity to it's mum is that it's yellow!

          my seeds were a new packet from kings seeds,got via the lottie society,i have 1 plant in the garden at home,now,it,is a very big plant,is in semi shade,tucked in between the compost bins,the said courgetts seems to be a trailing type,and how,it also gets negleted,but is an extremly healthy plant with large darker green leaves with a silver fleck,and very prickly,
          me thinks i will be o/k to sleep as no one has been attacked down at the lottie,YET,
          where would be without something to laugh about,it all helps to release the happy hormones.
