 I am drooling  :lol:  We're beef farmers so i dream of eating roast lamb :lol:

Wild mushrooms so I cant take the credit for the growing. Picked them this morning and had them with  fried tomatoes and scambled eggs, all our own stuff.   :)  What a breakfast :D

sniff sniff I'm not jealous really, mine BNs are only about 5 inches long :(

I have got 1 Thelma Sanders squash that's big enough to eat though and an orange Uchiki Kuri, so shouldn't complain :D

Picked more runners for tea and gave the grandchildren a mix of black, yellow and red tomatoes to take home, which amused them 8)

My butternuts still have male flowers only :-( but did manage to pick the first decent size crop of runner bean (instead of just 3 or 4), the hugest radishes i've ever seen (thanks rain), and a courgette that's gone from zero to hero in 48 hours (again thanks to said rain!)
