Broad beans, tomatoes, the first 4 runner beans (!!) and a baby leek picked by mistake!

Having had a lousy (literally) start the broad bean plants recovered from the black fly and went on to produce a good crop, this was the last big picking (15th August - not bad!), there will be one final picking probably next week and then I can cut the plants back to make room for something else.
The tomatoes are wonderfully sweet - the little Garderer's Delight are superb. The Money Maker are a bit thick skinned but flavoursome.
Having had a really slow start the runner beans are now producing at last!
