Fruit; appointment (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

date

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'fruit' is the first definition.
(date is a kind of fruit)

'appointment' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for date that I've seen before include "sell-by, for example" , "See 12" , "Day, month and year" , "Particular time when event happened" , "retrieved from palmtop?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Times.
