Hi Mike,
I miss green beans in your list. They don't take up much room if you take climbers and are very easy to grow. I would suggest Rakkers as they crop and freeze well.
Paprika and almost all types of cucumber will only grow under glass in Holland.

What sort of Soil!!

Dark and Very Soft in Excellent Condition

Busy taking out all the Tree and Bush Roots and its breaking up really fine So the Hard part is really worth the Effort.[ Now busy with the Ground Preparations]

Very Small  amount  of Sandy Type earth along the Borders But I think this is due to The Paths that are laid.
