I'm in Lincolnshire and manage to grow most stuff. It does take a little more attention (I'm useless during the early months of the year because I always forget to check for frost warnings...). This year has been dismal so far :S because of the cruddy weather. In fact, in the UK to a certain extent it's not so much how far North you are, but how far East. I have a friend about "level" with me but on the West of the country and he struggles with his garden. We tend to avoid a lot of the worst weather over here ;D
