PearsHarvested Concorde and Laxtons Triumph yesterday, everything else seems to have disappeared.
Concorde - ripe to eat off the tree, too ripe to store more than a week in the fridge though, not many this year so no hassles.
Laxtons Triumph - Like Williams (is it a sport of Williams?), picked just right I think, good to eat straight off the tree; crisp and good acid/sugar balance but still unripe enough to keep for a few weeks.

Do pears "just disappear"? I'm sure that one year I had a good crop of pears on a tree; but when I came to pick them, there were none. I had assumed that people had taken them,

Dunno, I don't think they dematerialise, but the only person that might have access to that field is the bishop (bishops house backs onto this field).

Open and shut case then - never trust men who wear long dresses!
