A couple of weeks ago a friend of mine desperately wanted a load of apples, some-thing to do with chutney. He had spied what he thought was an apple tree by the side of a carpark. So after a few pints he and a mate went scrumping in the dark, filling bags, falling out of trees, got chased by a landowner. When they got home they were not apples, but pears.
