Two Veg

There's nothing quite like fresh vegetables from your own garden.

Well, actually, slightly better than that is fresh vegetables from someone else's garden. Because then you don't have to bother with the whole tedious seeding and growing and weeding bit.

My granddad is a gardener, and has a fine garden with a plot put aside to growing veg, and a small highly but productive greenhouse.

We visited him over the weekend, and came away with a great haul of onions, shallots, and radishes. Plus two of these lemon cucumbers.!

They have a wonderful, tangy taste. Not at all like a lemon, really, but so much nicer than your bog-standard Cucumis sativus "Tescos".
