          As courgettes are coming thick and fast we now have a freezer full of all different versions of 'Courgette and...' soups

                              Runner beans have really got going and we're picking about 5lb per day (we've got a lot of plants!).

                              We don't get a great deal of colour in July but, hopefully, it will pick up in August.
