      Been getting plenty of bite sized cucumbers off my 'Mini Munch' plant in the greenhouse.
      Not quite sure what to call this one though, bicumber?, duocumber?, or how about a cucumpair? :biggrin:

            Is that also your Sunflowers down?

            When I got to my plot I found that I'd left both my scissors and knife and home, but perservered cutting polypropylene string by rubbing along the arris of a brick as I was convinced the wind would knock them all down unless tied up there and then.

            I've got lots of windfall apples to press, amount growing each hour, and tommorrow I'll go looking for dropped plums.

                      IMG_0746.JPG IMG_0745.JPG Took a couple of photos at my plot this morning... corn looking promising, Broad beans, runner beans and peas , strawberries and raspberries, black currants have been great, but onions disappointing so far.... potatoes ok, no blight yet

                                It has been a good year for coriander. This is the second sowing.

                                Ditto with the parsley.
