Late but Yummy!

At long last the tomatoes are ripening and the runner beans are setting. We've had a generally very dry, cool and dull summer but recently have enjoyed the odd sunny and hot day which has made all the difference to ripening fruit. These tomatoes were all germinated from seed by Chris Genever and include Sungold, Gardener's Delight, Black Krim and Country Taste Beefsteak.  The Sungold are unbelievably sweet but all are delicious and will be put to good culinary use! I was late sowing runner beans and having done so, the weather was cold so ours are really very late and this was our very first picking.  With heavy downpours predicted tonight and tomorrow, we might strike lucky and have some MUCH needed rain - fingers crossed!
