My first veg coming through

[waynebeddall]

Hi not been on here for a while very busy and now lots of sunshine action at last at the allotment.
I know this might no be much but I am very excited by this photo at last it looks like something is coming to a dinner plate near me.

Congratulations, as a newbie myself it has been great this summer eating and marvelling at what I can grow, make sure they don't turn into marrows as I have two woppers at the moment I am looking to enter into the virtual comp
Well done again and enjoy

Well done, WB. They're worth waiting for. Shop bought one's never taste as good.

Looks good Wayne!

Looks like courgettes to me WB. Not been a good year for curcubits - or anything else so you're doing great. I can taste that fritata now. Enjoy.

cheers for the comments gonna have a check on them today fell a bit mental that I can get so excited about a courgette.

Well done Wayne!! I will be just as excited when (if!) my courgettes ever make it .... hope they taste great.

Congrats Wayne, I've only had one lonely courgette on my plant so far so I think you're doing brilliantly!

[Flummery]

I've been picking courgettes regularly for a while but you always miss one! Found a small marrow yesterday after being away for the weekend. Keep your eye on them Wayne, they'll be huge before you know it!

Congrats, Wayne. It's so exciting actually getting something to eat from your plot, isn't it!

You should have seen me when I got my first courgettes - mental doesn't come close. I was telling anyone who would listen, and a few that wouldn't I think it's great that you are excited.
Well done Wayne and here's to many more.

Hey Wayne - no wait a minute, that's me! Looking good chap. I know exactly what you mean. I came home all proud with my first "crop" of potatoes not so long ago - it was a very "hunter-gatherer" moment for me. "Look wife, I make potato!"

Same name, same county - you sure you're not me!?

Plot looks good chap, very envious of the fact you're allowed both shed and greenhouse, neither are allowed on our allotment - boo!

Keep up the good work.

Congrats mate and let me assure you you are not mental getting all excited about your veg. I grow the stuff for a living now and every day that something new comes through gives me a buzz - and not cause I'm gonna sell it, but 'cause it's another success- especially in this years battle against the elements.
