Maincrop taters, beans, or you could buy little plants like tomatoes and plant them out. May is a good month to start, really - some years you still have frosts in April.
I just realised I was assuming you meant veg. I'm crap at everything else.

Adding courgettes to veg list from @General_Strike. We planted some old, knackered (I thought) seeds two weeks ago & they're already growing like topsy! Also our Chard, some lettuce and late broccoli all went in last weekend and the weekend before. Edit: also fennel and runner beans sown indoors to go out in a few weeks
Up in Cambridgeshire, we had a frost this morning. So that might have nuked some of the weaker plants/seeds outside. So I guess it's a bit of pot luck (no pun intended) this time of year.

You should still be able to direct grow a few things in May; spinach, spring onion, beetroot, cabbage and broccoli, though broccoli hardly seems worth the effort.

Aldi veg. plug plants? More expensive than seeds but at least you'll know they've all come up and been given a start while you're still trying to fit your world into cardboard boxes.
Try to get them as soon as they arrive in store - apparently they're not watered after delivery for safety reasons.
I'll probably have to start again after the last few days of frost wind hail and snow...

@ 
We're moving flat (into one with a mother fucking garden!) in mid/late May. Knowing that this was going to happen (although not that we'd be having a garden) means I've not done anything this year. What will I be able to start to grow that late?
