yes yes yes yes :)

the radishes went in the later part of Feb under a sheet of corrugated plastic and are doing fine,
the carrots went in the weekend before last under corrugated plastic, still waiting for signs of germination,
the parsnips went in chitted last Friday
and the beetroot went into the ground this Saturday gone as plug plants that were sown i think mid February.

will know how they are all fairing on Thursday when i return home from visiting with friends.
