We have apples

The apple tree produced a fantastic display of blossom earlier this year.

However the unpredictable nature of the British weather meant I remained sceptical as to whether fruit would follow.

It seems I was right to be cautious. The earlier blossom has not borne as much fruit as might have been anticipated.

Nonetheless we have apples.

They are small and there I a long way to go before we can pick them to enjoy.

They may get eaten by birds or insects.
They may fall off.
They may get a disease.

I'm not going to count my apples just yet.

Tonight though, we have apples so we will celebrate this.
