Lettuce, spinach, peas runner beans and courgette.
And the obligatory long shot looking over the skinny bit of vegetable plot. There is still a lot of work to be done. As you can see from the last photo the gravel path still needs to be completed. The potatoes are almost ready to dig. They've reached the point where they are beginning to topple and are shading the tomatoes. The peas need retying after the heavy winds over the weekend. Most of the onions were blown about too. But they are about ready to harvest. I'm really going to have to find some pickling recipes.

Yes, when it comes to green fingers amongst men, there's only Alan "Bonnie" Titchmarsh who can do this type of thing. A great idea turning wasteland into such a wonderful vegetable plot.
Beautiful 'photos

Too many peas! I don't know what to do with all the bloody peas! That's what happens when you plant so many because you don't think they'll grow. To top that off I have 5 courgette plants all sprouting more courgettes than you can shake a rather long barge pole at...
There is a vegetable invasion, and it's all my fault!

P.S. Please excuse my rather bad spelling - I've just got home from a night shift and have brain sprain.
