I have a couple outdoors almost ready to pop into my mouth - and lots will be ready next week.

2012 - Snow in February, non-stop rain till July. Blight and rot are rife. Thieving voles cause strife. But first runner beans and lots of greens. Follow an English allotment in urban France: http://roos-and-camembert.blogspot.com

I have started eating mine.  Had a few florian and marshmello, and the blackbird grabbed a Korona.  Grown outside no polytunnel though they have been covered on cold nights.  Also have a few Cambridge favourite and Marshmarvel just starting to blush up. 

Very nice!!!

I have a huge amount forming but I wish they don't all come at once.

Fingers crossed they will blush up nicely in the next fortnight.

My taste buds are going at the thought of them

I've plenty of large Florence in the poly but none red yet. Not an early sort but will be earlier than usual. Have 2 or 3 beds outside as well. Me and the blackbirds are eyeing each other up...... Nets at the ready! ;)
