Thanks @Lyn, though I'm impressed at how good an onion plait looks, I just use onion sacks and store them in the garage. I think the crop benefitted from ' refreshing ' my raised beds, the frames were rotting away so I replaced the boards and while doing so I added a lot of garden compost and kitchen waste in the base before putting the soil back in.
That reminds me of the one I picked yesterday @CatDouch. I didn't go rushing in either! It wasn't quite ripe, but I like them a bit sharp- Sungold. We never really get ripe toms before the end of July, and mine didn't germinate, and I had to re do them, so it's not too bad.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

For us this is the usual time to start picking.
