Standing in a sea of squash

Bob had been looking after the allotment for about 2 weeks but he's on holiday this week so I was down there and the squash and courgette plants had gone bleeding mental. Check this:



Squash for several metres in every direction. I got 2 squashes off the plot on Monday and the same today and there's bloody millions of them. Same with the courgettes.

I like the sheer chaotic unpredictability of squash - given time (and water), they would take over the whole plot.

Here's a better picture of one of the individual squashes - round yellow guys:




It's like the guy from A Team said: "I love it when a plan comes together".
