I imagined you as a leading light!

I'd need to have a) time and b) successful harvests!

Thus far this year I've got a bucket of potatoes from 6 tubs,

I tried to find some last week but didn't see one.

I've got 3
bulbs of elephant garlic, about 5 garlic plants that didn't clove
properly.

Nor have mine.

The broad beans are starting to pod,

We ate quite few when they were two or three inches long, they're flowering
again so I'm hoping to be able to pod some when we get back. I've never
grown them before.

there's one-count-them-
one carrot,

Yes, I found mine - my one - yesterday when I pulled up what I thought was a
leafless (chomped) weed. It was just over an inch long and tasted very good.
Make the most of yours!

and the French beans are starting to flower.

Haven't got French but the conventional runners are doing well, the yellow
ones won't grow upwards. Never grown those before either.

Everything else
has been killed by weather, slugs, and cats.

Weather and slugs yes, we've made the garden cat-proof. But the hens are
eating what brassica they can reach through the chicken wire hurdles.

Even I'm getting bored by the rain :-(
