Just back from a very successful foray in Suffolk: amethyst deceivers, wood blewits, wood mushrooms, common puffballs, parasols, and a couple of small ceps. larger specimens were waterlogged and open for critter restaurant business... So many clouded agarics as well, we ate these last year - younger specimens only they were delicious, and neither of us had any bad effects. Does anyone else do clouded agarics?

The biggest I have found this year. Had been chewed on quite a bit but was surprisingly worm-free. Made a good soup!

Saw a big one today, but it was sadly past it and starting to get a white mould over its cap.
