Tatties  :thumbsup:
As long as you avoid roots I think you can plant just about anything (root veg can 'fork' if they're in a manure heavy soil)

Ok....thanks HappyHippie and BerkshireBoy. However, is there no risk of e-coli or others if you plant tatties or root crops? OH and I are in a dissagreement. I think climbers eg runner beans, peas, courgettes. He thinks tatties will be ok. Am I just being paranoid?
