Is it too early to plant my courgettes outside? The seed packets say May/June but they have lots of leaves and are starting to flower. I live on the south coast and we haven't had any frost for about 4 weeks. PS I think this site is cool!

Welcome Ali -  Phoenix is right.  I wouldn't be too sure of planting out here but you should be fine.
It's quite amazing the differences in parts of the country. I was in Norway a couple of years ago staying in Roros, which is about a quarter of the way up the country. Outside was a metre of snow and the temperature fell to -28 one night.  This was the end of February.
On the TV they were showing them in the south west planting potatoes. That was surreal!

I put my cougettes out last week because they were growing so fast, but I still have them covered in fleece (just in case!)
