Not sure what is going on with your b*******t's there should be some sign of fruit I would have thought-oh dear, never mind! Miles Cid,

Solitary miniature pumpkin still doing fine and a glorious yellow too, b********** squash huge but flowers only just visible. This either means I'm either going to get a bumper harvest in winter or nothing at all. Wonder how Rod's marrow is doing :) The very reliable local grocer here has today, a splendid display of English cob nuts and late strawberries, victoria plums and all kinds of root veg. Apparently there'll be no damsons or sloes this year no doubt due to our strange weather. During the next few weeks I intend to gather rose hips as per the recent post and make lots of syrup, I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to it..... almost certainly it's heading towards becoming one of my famous culinary obsessions!

Cabbage best eaten hot. Thanks for the kind remark, they have been particularly good this year. Miles Cid,

One thing I was unsure of is should it be served hot or cold? I should also congratulate you on having grown such a perfect example, a thing of great beauty. Cid Miles,
