cucumber no. 3 was harvested yesterday and eaten in salad today, along with home-grown lettuce ( ds1 had some in his lunch-box as well). I'm soooo proud

Yes I know some of you have allotments and grow shedloads of stuff, but all I have is a postage stamp sized garden on a housing estate.

I have a tiny little veg patch too and a little plastic greenhouse. I used to have a cucumber plant too

But i am so glad you are enjoying your harvest. I can almost taste it now......
