Fair play mate.you ain't scared to try the mushrooms I'm the same as walshie said.havent the confidence to try any.

If I'm confident it's what I think it is I'll eat it

This is a couple of sites I use. The first one is good and user friendly has good ID videos and will answer emails. The second one is harder to use but has many more mushroom and fungi.

You should be able to find them Hedgehogs and Winter Chanterelles about now in the woods especially Fur woods on the side of the Moor mate.

Oysters     for got them mate.     As for Beef Steak don't much like them, look nice mind. The Giant Polypore/Blackening Polypore I have never tried it.

Just trying to think of the easy ones for Guy to learn.

Cheers Arry

Hopefully I'll be able to have a look soon but would mean missing a day's fishing

If you like soggy cardboard you won't get anything closer than a giant polypore

Inkcaps are easy enough

I must have had about half a dozen books and I could identify quite a few before I tried any thing other than field mushrooms. It takes a while to build your confidence up. Learn some of them I put up mate.

Cheers  Arry

I will keep my eye out as I go about the permission mate.see what I can find.

Only hazel nuts and blackberries I pick from the wild..

Come on Kev. Asking random people on the internet if something is deadly or not from a dodgy photo is foolproof. What's the worst that could happen?

It is a dodgey pic lol the parasol is a mighty fine edible possibly one of my faves dipped in beaten egg and breadcrumbs  just have to make sure  it’s all about the stem and how ther spread  once your sure  get them 2 /3 day max edible is snake skin stem and the collar rides up n down the shaggy parasol has no snake skin but looks mighty similar  but it won’t kill ya lol  2nd pic edible on right less shaggy but the stem is the giveaway

Truthfully I hadn't looked and was being pedantic, noone had mentioned edible to walshie

 

be careful  what ever you pick and eat, it killed big old Clint Eastwood   in that film  when he was solder, with all them young women .
