I've just planted more carrots, beetroot, bunching onions, broccoli raab and fennel which I bought particulary because they were varieties that said they could be planted into August.  If you want to sent me a SAE I can let you have some fennel seeds and broccoli raab seeds as have got some of these left over and could spare you some.

think we can add leeks to the list?

If you only want "mini-leeks" or the season stays good longer..  :)
