Even the 'Wood Blewitt' KT posted looks doubtful and could even be Lepista sordida, but will give this the benefit of the doubt.

The colour is too strong for a blewitt. I still think Cortinarius.

Thats not my photo. I got it from the Gallery.

In that case KT, you must have washed the photo before you put it on the line.

Good luck with the Cortinarius you may just have a new species here, can't see any veil remnants on the more mature of the 2 or even any on the younger specimen. Still L. nuda for me. Over saturated colours.

I bow to your superior knowledge, but it still doesn't look anything like the ones I've got on my kitchen worktop ready for breakfast.

Well I got you all talking didn`t I.
I`ve looked on the web, seen lots of pictures & the only thing I can say is that there are so many colour variations on everything
I can see it doesn`t have a veil, so I think it may be Lepista nuda.
Thanks to everyone for helping me ,glad to cause a stir

Here are a couple of Yves Deneyer's photos of this new species I found.





Looks like he's confused about blewitts too.
