    Well I'm afraid the "mentally ill" I look after don't tend to suddenly become well at 5pm so it's a 24 hour job here. I work full time nights which drives me up the wall as we regularly have a fox come and sit right outside the ward window and I can't get any pictures of him!!!

    This is the first forum I have joined and I am so impressed by how friendly the people are.

    Yeah I saw that from the thread Slimboy started.

    I have been toying with the idea of starting my own site but as yet I don't have enough images. My husband has a great chunk of space on a server and he designs online shops for people so I shall ask nicely for a bit of space when the time is right. Might take me a little while though as work always seems to get in the way. It's very inconvenient.

    Hey Nick how you doing? I see your website is doing well. You've got Page Rank on your homepage now, which is cool. I forgot to tell you a little while ago I put a link to your site on my business website links page because links to your site help the page rank. You probably know all that already. Anyway well done on your hard work on it! :-)

    hi nick thanks for the VM. There is park near me that has a mixture of deciduous and coniferous woodland. I have found more in the deciduous woodlands than the coniferous one. eg blushing bracket, dog stinkhorn and rooting shank. I have found dyers mazegill in the coniferous woodland but thats about it. The coniferous woodland is quite full of bracken so I don't like to go around because of the carcinogenic spores. I stick to the paths usually. What places are best in coniferous woodlands because whenever I look in a clearing with a tree. theres nothing usually there. theres absolutely nothing in the leaf litter.

    Nick, as soon as I got home from the foray, I put all the ones that I couldn't ID on the spot, in the fridge where they will probably stay for 2 days till I find time to have a go at em - as for the list, I'll ask our wizz 'kid' if there is a way I can send it to you without my having to type it out again.
    Neil.

    PS. How was I to know you were waiting for a list - had you put a post somewhere where I haven't seen it yet ?

I was all geared up for a rather damp foray. The waterproofs were to make their first appearance for a while, and it was only when I awoke early on the morning of the foray, that I realised I'd be safe leaving them at home. We couldn't have been more fortunate in that it wasn't cold outside, but rather pleasantly warm, with an accompanying breeze.

Upon arriving at Park Farm, we took a few minutes to soak up the view across the valley. We later learned that River Cottage itself, though...

After a short four mile drive, we knew when we had reached the destination as J.P put his hazard warning lights on and pulled over on the left side of the road to park. We got out and immediately starting strolling towards the sign 'Public Footpath' which led away from the roads, house and any other civilisation and made our way down a gravel road full of deep puddles. We took a quick look in the wood-chip that was beside the path that was being used to maintain the gardens of the housing estate...

I departed the house and made my way to the car park. I found David and Chaka waiting on the path. We headed to the car and set off towards Berkshire to rendezvous with J.P.

After quite a drive and some pretty miserable skies, we arrived at Greenham Common and what a lovely place it was. David had been here before and of course J.P was on his home patch so he knew the area well, whereas It was all new to me. Considering that the skies were so dull, the place looked beautiful-...

Spontaneity is a great thing. What would have been a day inside alone, turned into a day of wonderful walking, good company and a handful of nice finds.

I awoke at about 8.15 ready for my 9 o'clock rendezvous with David. Obviously I had set the alarm early to make sure I had time for a shower and of course, a cup of Earl Grey to get me wide eyed. After checking that camera gear was all present, correct and charged, I left the house and headed towards the infamous 'Waitrose car park'...

We'd been rather excited about this trip ever since it had been announced. New terrain is always pretty exciting, especially when the terrain is so variable throughout the forest. Not only was the excitement reserved for what we might find today, it was reserved for the thought scanning the area for patches to revisit in the Autumn months when the fungi season is in full swing. I had prepared my camera equipment the previous evening, mainly so I could get a little bit more sleep in the morning rather...
