Now who would have thought that a cup of coffee could so succinctly sum up our British summer thus far!
There is however something that has been enjoying all this warm, damp weather……
Introducing the mother of all fungi. I actually thought a stray football had found its way into the border until on closer inspection I discovered the ‘football’ was in fact being enjoyed by the local slugs. I know nothing about wild mushrooms and would never pick any for fear of poisoning myself but I have been told that if the slugs are eating it then its OK for us humans. Hmmm, not too sure I want to liken my taste and digestion to that of a slug so the ‘football’ as it is now affectionately named will stay where it is for the slugs to enjoy.
Let me know about any other mega mushrooms appearing where you are!
