I have planted some Spinach and rocket seeds today and will hopefully transplant my courgette plants in there, or what would you green fingered among you recommend?

on another note, our 2 year old Strawberry plants gave us a small bounty of fruit today…

with lots more to come, of course this is nothing compared to our neighbor who has got 85 strawberry plants on his allotment, I hope he has some spares!
