As for spuds it's my understanding that it's a bit late for this year.... although I may be wrong http://www.rhs.org.uk/Gardening/Grow-Your-Own/Veg-A-to-Z/Potatoes
If anyone knows different please let me know as I've found a little bit of land near my that's rock hard and some spuds can really help break up the soil if I could do that over winter it'd be great.
That said you can grow some salad - lettuce etc - you'll get some leaves pretty quickly.
If you plan ahead you can grow some winter veg - brussels sprouts (early mid September for Xmas day crop) , garlic (plant November - ready April /May - about 6 months later), purple sprouting broccoli.
You can also do a lot of root crops too - leeks, beets, carrots, turnips, parships, radishes for a winter harvest.
