.. but I forgot to announce my newness here when I was new! So I'll just say thanks to all those people who have already helped me out with identifying things and thanks also for the interest provided by other people's discoveries.
I live on the Isle of Wight between chalk downland and a sandy/ rocky coast, but most things I see daily are just sprouting from cracks in the built environment when walking my kids to and from school.
I ramble all over the IoW, cycle a lot and travel by bus when I can afford it (fares on the IoW are steep compared to the mainland).
Nice to meet you,
Rob
