Give me a real ripe Cox's Orange Pippin, if you
can find one (Tesco and Waitrose need not apply).

You are the Ghost of Christmas Past and ICM£5!

When I was little we used to get a lovely big box of the most perfect and
delicious Cox's every Christmas from relatives who worked at the East
Malling research station. They've been my favourite apple ever since but I
never seem to find any half as good in the shops now.
