My tomatoes are huge! Probably 4 ft by now. Once they started, there was no stopping them.

And the lettuce is coming on well. I ate some this week for the first time and it tasted like.....lettuce :)

The runner beans are determined to attach themselves to everything, and I fear that the corner of the room they're in may soon be jungle like.

The cucumbers on the other hand, are not doing quite so well, and I think that might end up being a disaster now that my Mum has shown me how big her cucumber plant is! I am however, going to separate one from the rest and put it on it's own in a different position to see how it does.

But a friend raised the issue of bees. I don't have any and I don't want any in the flat! But she suggested that a paint brush might do the trick.

It's very exciting though! :)
