Scrumping?

Getting much this year? Swiped a fair few tomatoes, bit early for apples. One or two plums about.
Quite partial to a nice pear.

How far north do you live? I've been enjoying occasional ripe plums since July, loads of blackberries and as I have my own apple tree which comes in early no need to scrump those.

Oh I enjoyed a nice pear a couple of days ago too! 
It's a game of three halves!

I enjoyed a nice pair the other day, but not really scrumping.
Having said that, not so much a tree to pick from, but a nice little bush to have a nibble at!  ;D

Cleaned a house built in 1867 and it still has its original orchard. I asked the owner if i could take an apple which was of the russet variety. The flavour was magical and was probably how all fruit tasted before chemicals were added. The house also had a demon or a djinn in residence which wasn't very friendly - luckily i spent as little time as possible inside the house.
