Carrots and brocolli. Still no courgettes (other than one the size of a little finger) to speak of

No carrots yet Think I used old seed - nothing came from MkI Peas, s/berries and new tatts being picked daily

Five rows of early potatoes to make room for the leeks. Two varieties: Charlotte and Delice. They vary in size - the Delice are the largest with some of them weighing in at over 500gm each!

Yum yum Delice - I've got 2 rows of it but only eaten one plant so far as we are eating the Belle de Fontenays first. The BdF's are big too - I love my tiny new potatoes but they decided to be too big this year! Don't understand the low yield they say this plant gives - it so doesn't!

Ya is lucky then MM -- very rarely can I get good big baking tatties here--- its mainly bags of small ones -------- But luckily --in late autumn --we buy kilos and kilos of good tatties and carrots and beets from relatives in Tanya's native village/town and store them in our underground cellar-- Will maybe run out in another few weeks --

Whooop whoop first big tom from outside (as I don't have an inside), a Noire de Crimee, and first autumn raspberries (a bird got the first one). It's Zeva and absolutely huge!
