I know it's not pretty but....

...it IS a milestone. :happy:  The brambles were over my head in January - finally I feel like I am getting somewhere.

And I am particularly proud of my potatoes!  Look at 'em!  Just look at 'em! :D  :lol:  I'm still amazed I've cultivated anything at all really! :)  Leeks and parsnips under the (very bent out of shape) cloche too (I tried to over stretch it.... :blink: ::))

Now I would just like some neighbours alongside....

I bet the neighbours are fascinated by what you've acheived. Word will soon get out and you'll have a waiting list. :)

Well done. Give yourself an "I did it myself" badge. :D

Definitely agree with Rob, and those spuds will keep growing and you'll be eating them before you know it  ;)
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
