Well I'm spuffing (it's an old west country tradition, I've said something, now you prove me wrong ), they may not be the variety Slack my Girdle, but come on, it got your attention and it is the name of an old Devon cider apple variety. I've just asked my 90 year old neighbour (actually 90 today), born and breed here, my cottage was his fathers workshop where he built farm carts, stairs and coffins, but he doesn't know which variety they are. My local farmer has a very old book full of illustrations but you'd need to see the apples to identify them
These are the last three trees in the little valley behind my cottage, it used to be a proper orchard at one time, they are laden with blossom, if it all sets and we get rain soon there will be a bumper harvest this year.
