My Pilots are bigger than golf balls - nearly 3 times that size!
(is this a case of 'my spuds are bigger than yours' syndrome?)

Yeh, it's great. I to have harvested a small crop of first earlies that I planted in pots earlier in the year, this morning. Harvesting and eating is the best part of growing your own in my opinion  :)

Size isn't everything - or so I am told  :oops:

Guess what I am having for tea.  :lol:
