Couldn't possibly do any harm??

Just chuck some fleece over & pretend they're not there!

Tim, at the local huge asparagus farm in Kent, they told me they will stop cutting on Tuesday, 21st.  :'(  :'(  but will have the lovely stuff for sale until Saturday 25th.  We have a kilo in the fridge for the weekend, and  so have to get another bundle in before next Saturday!
