Here's the site's sowing and harvest chart

All the winter veg needed to be sown earlier in the year :(

you can put some potatoes in bags if you have somewhere frost free for them and they will be ready December, otherwise herbs again indoors.  If you want to plant outside you can put onions and garlic in now ready for next summer (I never bother as I have had success planting them in spring)
3 dogs, 8 chickens, 4 rabbits 2 guinea pigs, 10 quail, 2 fish and a demanding daughter who has gone to uni and left me with 29 animals to care for!!=)

Some garden centres stock plug plants of spring cabbage, kale ect that can be planted now, and you can just squeeze in spring onions, spinach, turnip and winter radish now from seed, if you are reasonably far south


PS Please could you add your locality to your profile as this will help responses to your posts being better matched to growing conditions  :)

Spinach can be planted now and broad beans. Doubt they will be ready for Christmas though!
