A fruity request

If anyone has or knows of any spare crab apples, quinces or similar small hard fruits for making jelly, please let me take them off your hands! All our local wild apples were cut down last year or pruned very badly, and the quinces I know of are no longer near where I live. Happy to swap for finished jelly.

I was at the allotment today clearing yet more weeds and freeing the currants, jostaberry and raspberry bushes from a year's worth of bindweed and mare's tail growth. Keeps me fit for T'ai Chi. 

Walking home I saw this lovely troup of parasol mushrooms.
