Wow!! Well done you - I did 'Twenty' cucumbers this year and picked the first one yesterday - was also around 8 inches and deliciously crisp but it was not as typically cucumber shaped like yours - more like a banana!!

thanks chelms38 Im really pleased with them this year , they have been grown outside as opposed to last year when I had them in the greenhouse ,
I only managed to harvest 1 cuccumber from three plants , I think maybe it was just too hot for them.

One thing when growing your own is even if you don't get that good a crop the taste of the home grown is still worth all the effort. :T

Excellent! All you need to do is imagine a couple of ears either side and it would look just like an elephant. :D

Just teasing.

(Referring to a previous joke in case anyone wonders. )
