            My courgettes have finished, but the green button patty pans are going bonkers! Picked about a dozen yesterday, and there are many more coming. Very late tho!

              • Forgot to add the two large bowls of Victoria plums picked yesterday.

                • A cabbage, the very last of the Ratte and Cara potatoes, 2 apples (unknown variety but very tasty) and a nice big bundle of Virginia Gold tobacco leaves.

                  • Dug up the rest of the potatoes - some massive great things, some with slug damage, but on the whole, not bad. Also, a few runners and frenchies, courgettes, patty pans and a big bunch of parsley. Took possession of a bag full of lovely cooking apples from a kind neighbour up our street who was knocking on local doors trying to off load surplus

                    • Busy picking and pulling still. No pun intended.

                      The green mutant pumpkin is moved. Did not need a wheelbarrow, but almost put me back out.
                      Nice pile of french beans.
                      More Runners.
                      Couple of courgettes.
                      Tomatoes.
                      Chillis (firecracker / prairie fire)
                      Cucumber (tough skins, but ok)
                      Unlikely Aubergine.
                      Small (ok minuscule) head of celery (there are some nice ones, but I am saving them a little longer - frost permitting)
                      Nice Jeanette Carrots. Lovely looking, almost too good for tomorrow's dinner.

                      Resisted pulling up a few parsnips.

                      Forgot, couple of Ramiro or Corno Rosso Peppers, I big red long un and a few greens that had been attacked by a sluf or caterpillar. Lots of green peppers and chillis still to come.

                      While wearing your night clothes, plant cucumbers on the 1st May before the sun comes up, and they will not be attacked by bugs.

                      • It was yesterday, and I'm really annoyed I didn't take a photo, but we picked:

                        courgettes
                        aubergines
                        marrows
                        runner beans
                        nasturtium flowers
                        raspberries
                        herbs
                        carrots
                        mustard greens

                        There was so much I needed a tray to carry it all into the house! Had ratatouille for supper and the rest is waiting to be prepared for freezing, along with apples from my parents' garden.
                        Is there anything that isn't made better by half an hour pottering in the veg patch?
