Found this specimen when I was out for a walk in the woods today there was a group of 8 and this was the largest
 
Nice find Elsenham, I've still to try them myself.

Got excited on saturday when we thought we'd found a 'baby' Shaggy Ink Cap, went back yesterday to see if it was ready for harvest and it turned out it was just some other kind of Ink Cap. :( We're slowly buildiing our knowledge.
 
We get a lot of jelly fungus (jelly ear), ink caps and parasol mushrooms around here. All good to eat but not earth shatteringly tasty. There is a chap that I know who gathers cep but he's very cagey about where he forages because he doesn't want them wiped out.
