Congratulations. That was a very good start and now that you have whet
your appetite, who knows.
Those Chelsea wizards started somewhere.

Thanks for letting us know.

Thanks Anthony, I think we've scuppered the runner beans anyway. We
didn't
know about the inch of stem bit before we cut them! Never mind, it's
only
for fun (although from what I've heard, not everyone thinks so)!!!

All Runner beans I've seen have been on a black background,
which was what I did at our local show on Saturday,
and so were all the opposition, (I could have exhibited on the Turin
Shroud,
I still wouldn't have won.:-)).
