They look interesting. Do you just eat them straight off the tree?
Did you know they are banned in the States?
Oops
No I didn't know they were banned in th USA. In France we only ban stuff or people we don't like.
Yes you can eat them from the tree I have been eating a handful a day. I'm suprised you Brits had not heard of them I'm sure we had them as kids in the UK but can't remember what they were called.

Watch out Jim's gone Googleing.
Nope they are not like Greengaeges. Similar but just not the same sorry. They are smaller than a greengage and although sweet they have a different flavour.
I'll have to come over and try one then
I have thousands of them so come and help yourself. But not before 11am
