Following up to Tim Tyler :
I bought some berries here in Bristol - with
"murallas" written on the box.
They look like red and yellow blueberries -
but inside the seeds are like little rocks -
more like a guava than a blueberry.

Could it be a sort of medlar? (Mespilus germanica)
Interesting. I looked at their relatives.
Not an exact match - but perhaps a lead.
I bought them at Bristol's Sweet Mart.
They couldn't tell me much about them -
except that their availability was not
very good.
Good old Abdul!!! Must drop by there soon and tell him,
plus get some - if I can!!!
