Where I come from scrumping has nothing to do with apples. Guys use it as a term for sex. Go figure. I always wondered what it meant.

the word scrumping comes from tradition even today it means that you can pick up the apples that lay on the ground, ie that have fallen from the tree from their own accord and the farmer has not collected them,
