Re: WAB Clumber Fungi Foray 2008

Thanks Richard and DaveP I'm just trying to hold the subject steady......... Judging by the lack of further response it would seem the heat has gone out of this - maybe we can get back to the original thread - Clumber meet? Or is there nothing new to add - just waiting for it to come around

Any more takers?

I finally got things organized so I could join you on 5th Then something else came up that I cannot get out of and I can't even make the 16th - but it is helping to look after my granddaughter while mum is away
I will just have to drool over your finds that weekend. Enjoy it folks and I will meet you soon.

Re: WAB Clumber Fungi Foray 2008

Hi all

I'll be at Clumber Park most of the bank holiday to 'test out' the October foray routes. Hopefully soon I can then email everyone the maps, routes and approximate times.

It is looking very good at the moment

Re: WAB Clumber Fungi Foray 2008

It's disappointing news from me as I've now heard that my operation will take place on 4 September so the chances of me travelling up to Clumber are pretty remote even if keyhole surgery is the best option.

I wish everybody the best of forays and I will be looking forward to seeing the reports and photos.

There will be other opportunities to meet you all I'm sure.

David

That's real bad news David. I hope the Operation goes OK.

There will always be other opportunities at Clumber, that's for sure!

That's a real shame! All WAB meets should have at least three Davids in attendance - that's the rule (which I've just made up).

I wish you all the best for the op and for a speedy recovery.

I'll bring another David along just in case David can't make it... Well, his real name is Peter but he won't mind

There will be some non WAB (at the moment!) members attending too.

Re: WAB Clumber Fungi Foray 2008

Hello everyone

I've had a few days to go over the foray routes to see what's showing ... quite a lot!

Some are in the gallery but there were well over 100 species over 4 days ... again may Cortinarious and Inocybe species which went over the shoulder

Death Caps are having a fine season, with over 30 fruiting bodies in a small area. Russula's are everywhere and Ceps just get bigger each day!

Hopefully we shall have good rain in September to give us a good crop in October but I'm confident the routes will give us a diverse collection.

I'll email the information later this week.

John
