RHS Rules for size of apples
By Caroline
Bedfordshire,
United Kingdom 
Sorry this is a bit cheeky. Does anyone have a copy of the RHS Rules Handbook. I'm trying to find out if there is a recommended size for cooking and eating apples entered in shows. My dad was told last year that his were too big. I know I should buy the book but it's a bit expensive and wondered if anyone could look it up for me. Thanks

Too big? Sounds unusual. I thought that in fruit and veggie shows the bigger the better.
