Courgette problems

[andyblr]

hello all

First time trying to grow veg this year, most things are doing pretty well but my courgette plants seem to have some problems. The top of the main stem is damaged and some of the stalks have holes in and the leaves have some silvery/grey discolouration. Any ideas what it may be and how i might save it?
here are some pictures of the problems.

2 and 3 look like slugs or snails. I looks like its been twisted/stretched[possible down to wind or growth], and 4 I can't tell from the photo.
Courgette plants dont have lush healthy looking leaves/stalks forever. Only the younger ones look perfect. As they grow the older leaves can go floppy,wilted,withered,have powdery mildew, damaged by wind,spotty,white veined etc etc.
If the plant is producing fruit or flowers [depending on how old it is] don't worry what it looks like, just make sure you feed it/water it regularly.

Shame you didn't put on a photo of the whole plant. Nothing from the bits you did put on looks too serious though.

thanks you both for your help, overall the plant looks very healthy and it hasn't got any worse since my original post so i was probably over reacting,
thanks again
