Having suffered two weeks of constant rain it seems the peas (hurst Green shaft) loved it! only 4 weeks from sowing to 9" high! could be a bumper crop ;)

After the spud episode, the sight must make you feel a little more optimistic. Me! Well I prefer frozen peas to garden ones, unless of course they are eaten straight from the plant as a sweet.
Gardening is the great leveller.
