I have a confession to make boys, I lead a sort of Walter Mitty lifestyle. By day I'm a wannabe disc jockey, spinning some wheels of steel, but by night I collect apples. Finally I think I've found the forum where I can share my experiences with like-minded individuals. :)

I used to be a fan of a golden delicious, but recently I've taken more than a passing interest in a red gala. Does this make me a bad person? :confused:

What apples do you collect and why?

You've never heard of a Breaburn..OMG!!(GASP)

A mainly green apple but can be spotted with a wee bit of a red tinge.

I say Waitrose are the best as that shop only has quality.:cool:
Keeps the riff-raff away...na what I mean;)
Can't be doing with tax dodgers and rednecks eating Braeburns:)

Ever had an apple with a worm in it? It's kind of nice, in a disgusting sort of a way. :p

I prefer Pink Lady Apples. Sweet, and never tart.
