Hi thanks EJ and plocket for your nice comments.  ;D

I want keen lottie people to visit my allotment blog which I started a little while ago but everything there is written in some foreign language  and  I don't think many people who use this site understand that. :'( So just thought I'd put some pics here.

Nice to see i am not the only one who grows sunflowers in their veg plot. I have an area dedicated to annuals/cut flowers and grew sunflowers in it for the first time this year.

Great pics, nice presentation BTW

Hi Magpie Di.

The variety is called "Bambino" which is for baby courgett production.I don't pick them frequently enough and  tend to allow them grow to the average size...  :P but they're yummy,too!Not just the pretty leaves!

Great photos KT - very impressed by the artichokes.  I'd like to have a go at these next year - any growing tips? (By which  I mean that I know nothing about them at all beyond the fact that OH likes them and they cost a fortune in the shops ;D )
