If you don't want loads next year then, yes, you should cut them off. Also, once a herb is in flower some say that the herb loses some of its flavour.
If you do cut them off, they make a lovely addition to salads and make them look more interesting. Pop them into the freezer (try and keep them whole) if you don't want to use them straight away.
A garden is a lovesome thing, God wot! (Thomas Edward Brown)
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

�Negative results are just what I want. They�re just as valuable to me as positive results. I can never find the thing that does the job best until I find the ones that don�t.�

But they're so pretty! I leave them for the bees, which love them. I really don't mind if they self-seed, they make lovely edging plants (nice and upright so OH can't moan about them getting in the way of his lawnmower). So I have them in the flowerbed where we can all enjoy them .
