Default I've got peas!

Can't believe it. I planted 3 peas into a container to use the shoots in salads (very chefy I know but was suggested in my container gardening book) anyway before I knew it they had burst into flower last week and I have almost full grown pea pods! I'll have to do something special with them seeing you don't get many for the effort and I'm the only one who likes peas in my house. Can I plant some more or is it too late now?

I picked my first handful yesterday. They are Mange Tout from Lidl. The packet cost me just pence, and they are really sweet and tender.
