Still too wet to do much outside of the polytunnel but I've been spreading wood ash around the base of the fruit trees. The potash will help the trees to produce fruit.
See this links for more details: http://masdudiable.com/2010/01/06/wood-ashes-in-the-garden/
I've also found a great source for Irish-grown fruit trees: www.englishsfruitnursery.ie so I'll be ordering a few apple varieties and a Quince to go beside the pond when the ground dries out.
