Default Poor year for runner beans

My runner beans have been awful this year. I've got two lots, one lot
in the garden and the other up in the allotment. They've both failed to
produce a decent crop.
Is this just a poor year for them?


Mine have been very poor as well, I'm in Windsor, I think the lack of rain
had a lot to do with it, and as I'm on a water meter I was a bit reluctant
to water them a lot.
