Forgot to come back to this the other day. I dug up one plant to see what was beneath the soil and managed to harvest enough good sized spuds to feed four of us! :j :j

I've not been weighing mine so I can't join in with this :-( but we planted some roosters (which were ones left in a bag from the supermarket going a bit soft) and the yield we've been having is brilliant, I dug up a plant today and there was more than plenty for two meals for four of us, plus their texture and taste has been great. I'll have to remember to get the scales out next time.0
