Default Two trees I need help identifying

Hi,

Can anyone help identify these two trees for me please?

Location is Surrey, England.

The first one has small leaves 3-6cm long,with sort of ruffled-looking edges. Each leaf is individual, and the leaves grow alternately, not opposite each other.

It currently has very small green fruit, about 15mm diameter, which have a kind of shell or peel, with 3 or 4 large sticky black seeds inside. My neighbour thinks it's a lime tree, but this doesn't look like any of the lime photos on the net. The fruit does smell citrusy when I open it though.

The photos show the fruit opened.

The second tree might be more difficult, as I couldn't reach to get a good cutting. I do know that it has yellow flowers in late spring, and I've attached a photo that shows the flowers from a distance. Could it be a Laburnum?

First tree looks like a Pittosporum tenuifolium. Second tree is a Laburnum alpinum.
