Always look up when you are in the woods. Bursting out from behind the bark - I think these are edible.

Still alive today so they must be! :)

[stoneylonesome]

Good golly YOU ATE THEM all??? now what am I going to get a photo of??? :D :D

[arumdevil]

bloody hell! I wouldn't have risked it for a biscuit, they look dodgy.
If you die can I have your 20D ?? :D

[dewmuw]

People get a bit over cautious about fungus. OK I admit you shoudl never eat anything if you are not 100% sure what they are. But, and I have to admit to cheating a bit, I had the advice of a ranger on these and he in fact cooked them for lunch!


But thanks for the concern guys - I'm touched!

OH and I don't have a 20D yet - I'm waiting for the donations to start rolling in. If everyone on this forum gave my £5 I'd be well on the way. Go on you can afford it!!

No I was refering to the fact the 5 pounds (as in our unit of weight measure) would be quite a pile of money, see you call your money pounds we call kilograms pounds, and our money dollars so if I convert my dollars to 5 american pounds whew that be enough to buy out CANON :D :D :D :D I'd hate to think what a 5 (american weight pounds (2.3kilos)) of dollar bills would add up to... talk about an exchange rate...

Well just to confuse I was educated using the old imperial measurements (punds, stones, miles, etc) but it changed about 20 years ago to metric (cm, kilos and kilometers). My 4 year old asked me how tall I was in meters and I had no idea!

well they tried to convert over to metric here, but being the stubborn fools that we are we'ed have no part of, so now we have some stuff in American Standard and some stuff in Metric and me not knowing anything anymore :confused: :confused: :D

[Tdragone]

Lol.

Unless you live in Arizona;

Most of their measurements are in Metric; so no tourists know how far things are from one another.

First off, thats a lovely shot. Heck never thought I would say that about fungus, but I just did. Just like the shot, something lovely about those 'shrooms. As a matter of fact, I had 5 pounds and a few pence left from my Sept-Oct trip to England, stashed alway in my "london mints" candy container. I came back telling my parents, I lost more "pounds" in that little stay in England than any diet.
