Home made fruit smoothies

So a week or so ago I tried an Innocent Orange, Banana and Pineapple smoothie and really liked it. I have a kind of issue with the textures of fruits, strawberries for example is a big no no. I just end up retching. Mum knows not to make me eat strawberries. Doesn't stop her from trying occasionally though.

I need to improve my diet and get more fruit and veg into my diet. Veg I have a way of working in but fruit is a bit harder because of the textures. If I can make my own fruit smoothies I'll be able to get around this issue. My Mum was quite amazed when she took the bottle away for recycling. She looked at it and then asked if I knew it was a smoothie and did I drink it all.

So I'm wondering if the good people of Boat Drinks have any fruit smoothie recipes to hand out. I haven't got a blender yet but will get one soon.

I'm a bit of a noob with fruit so I don't know how I'd prepare some stuff. I'd peel oranges and remove the core from apples?
