Two halves of the same fruit

We have been in a quandary - should we - shouldn't we?

With only two apricots on the tree we didn't want to pick too soon but there again we didn't want to leave it too late. 

In the end the tree decided for us and discarded one of the fruits.
Luckily this much anticipated event occurred when Martyn was in the greenhouse and so in a matter of minutes, after a photoshoot, the fruit was cut in half and shared.
It was delicious.

    I'd be worried one of the animals around here would steal it. But you probably don't have that problem in your greenhouse.

      It is safer from birds Daphne that I guess would may peck at it if it was outside.

    This is like a miracle when we finally get to taste the fruits that we were waiting for years patiently.

    I'd have been tempted to eat the other one too, unless it has a way to go.

      It was a good job that Martyn was in the greenhouse when the first one fell off, Malar
