Them are the leeks I grew and  put in comp on here last year .
So I presume pics been taken from 2004 veg show we had on here.

Reason I am answering this thread is does any one know where I can get a shaft for that fork same as the one on it with a wooden D at top have seen them with the plastic D but would like original type shaft if possible.
Reason being number 1 son got carried away trying to lift a crown of rhubarb 
and used my best fork, despite 2 more being in shed one of them with steel allway up to the t bar ..In his wisdom he took my best and oldest fork..
if i cant get one it will have to be a plastic D shaft,
Expense not being aproblem as he is paying for it  :D..Aint offspring wonderful..
Yours Begruntled from Yorks,,,

                                                  Cheers. Jim
