I'm concerned about your spuds. If you mean the tubers are entirely
green
then they will be poisonous.

What I meant in the original post is all the _foliage_ is still green
(indeed with the odd flower - I did say they'd gone in late), not the
tubers! I may know more about computers than gardening, but I think even
I'd be worried if the spuds themselves were green ;-) Actually, I've got
no
idea what colour they are, or if they even exist - I've been very good and
not peeked yet

Even if they were green you'd have to eat an awful lot to be poisoned.
Pregnant women, I understand, are the most vulnerable to this.

I've been eating them for years and am still here.

Sorry for the confusion
