Thanks everyone! Whatever it is it was certainly the talking point of today's horticultural society show! Incidently it weighs around 8 1/2 kg.

 So what are you going to do with it.
 It's a shame really that you cut it seeing as no one really knew what it was. who knows it might have grown some more.  qahtan

Qahtan Joe took it home with him. He'll let me know what he does with it, and what it tastes like.
He's got at least two more still growing which are a couple of feet long!

There's a lovely guy that comes from Sicily up on our plot, he's grown these serpent squash this year:

They seem to look the same and his were sooooooo long too!
