It's not going to be too good a year for our fruit either :-(
The Williams has only four or five small fruit on it, the Cox very few too. The Bramley has quite a lot of small apples on it, but I doubt they'll come to much. There are hardly any Victoria plums, and the Conference has but a few scrawny offerings. The Comice is pretty sparse too.
Sorry to hear that - looks as though my little trees have done fairly well, all things considered then.
I did pick some blackberries too yesterday, enough for a small crumble for tea. Not as many as if they hadn't cut back the brambles at the back, but still. All they seem to have achieves with that is to destroy this year's fruit crop - the branches are back as thick as ever, just without blossom. Silly hooters should have taken out the roots if they were serious about it.

I only hope we get a few blackberries!
