So far I've dig up half the Premier spuds (these are lovely) and all the Pentland Javelin. I'm a little disappointed on yield but I didn't manure the soil over winter or feed the plants at all and there is only 15inch soil before you hit old foundations where they were growing so I really can't complain!

Today I picked 4 courgettes, a bag of sugar snap peas, another kg of strawberries, 3 nice size onions and my first garlic :) very proud

I then went into tesco where loads of fresh stuff asparagus, sugar snaps, sprouts had been reduce to 30p! which made all my hard work seem pathetic! but I horded as much as I could and feel quite proud of my 3 bags of shopping for under £10 even just to say fu trasco

My first cucumber - not very big but it was partly laying on the soil of the GH and I did not want it to be nibbled at (except by me) and very nice it was.  :)  The usual salad leaves and spring onions - this years spring onions are amazing - growing like weeds.  :)

1 lettuce, 7.5oz of Strawberries and the first courgette of the season.... yet somehow I know we are only a few weeks away of being bored to tears of them and giving them away to anyone who will take them.
