Thanks Dd , I haven't decide yet , i'm still gazing at it with some affection ...LOL...
Janey , we were trying to remember yesterday how we use to make some kind of rum in Marrows and couldn't remember ... we must have lost a few days at the time just like you Ha Ha .. ;o))

I remember doing the same....left it too long and the whole thing collapsed, that is going back over............far too many years to say lol

Sure the winner was genetically engineered Amy ..I d appeal and demand a DNA test .. bet they were giving it cortisone injections and re hydration therapy .. you know the lengths some will go to at these horticultural shows , its dog eat dog out there !

LOL Dd ... those were the days , we would try to make anything out of something else ..... :o)
You're right about that Jane ...LOL... the chappy who won always wins everytime with his giant veg , goodness knows what he does to them , they certainly don't look eatable ! you would need a wheelbarrow for one of his cabbages honestly ! ... .
Thanks Linda , I will try for a bigger one next year .. :o)
