  1. Best thing would be to talk to the neighbour, be honest, sincerely apologetic, and offer to replace. Not something you can or should hide from, its things like this can come back and bite you in the arse. You'd be surprised how the truth is taken glad I'm not in your shoes, good luck!
  2. Discuss away it is arb talk...
  3. Closer...
  4. This?...
  5. Have worked for someone with B EV1L, also saw RADIO 1 on an old sh*tter in a multistory car park recently...
  6. A worthy home for such a book
  7. Well done indeed don't even have that in the one book I'm using at the mo (rogers), that will teach me to be more thorough! So, Mollisia cinerea, (as Gerrit said previously 'Or one of the macroscopical look-a-likes of M. cinerea, which can not be distinguished from one another without using a microscope and specialised literature.') A. sarcoides A. mellea rhizomorphs Hopefully close?! Out of interest, how did you find it on the net? I've never had luck identifying fungi that way....
  8. Hello and good to see someone else on board thanks for the tips hama, I will have another go soon but too busy at the mo...
  9. Ok, as no one else is playing how about a Christmas clue? Not fussed about the book, quite happy just playing
  10. Odd bit is the branch complete with bark wedged in it? Is it where someone has increment bored the tree years ago then filled the holes (one drilled from either side by looks of it) with said branch? Seems an odd thing to have done on a small obviously non decayed tree, but it sure looks like it
  11. Away at the moment so nothing to reference to, don't think I'm giving up though! To anyone else, don't let the thread go dead, tis a good way to learn
  12. Ok, is 3 strictly a fungi? Could it be a lichen, maybe Leptogium, as a total guess as I have virtually no lichen literature! Or am I way of course here...
  13. Ok, had a look on a pc now, and the 'black plates' I saw before are the 3rd fungi! I think, they aren't just young 2s are they?! 1, possibly Armillaria rhizomorphs. 2, I still reckon are A sarcoides. Am I close? Are the rhizomorphs in fact bark fibres, or roots?
  14. One out of three FUNGI present, or three guesses?
  15. Ah like that is it?!:sly: ok, shoot me down... is it Kretzchmaria deusta, shown by the soft rotted wood and exposed black plates?
  16. Not sure what you mean by read between the lines? But here goes, obvious choice would be Ascocoryne sarcoides, but it just might be Neobulgaria pura (beech log?), or even the rare var. Foliacea
  17. Flammulina velutipes
  18. Certainly the thread had the desired effect, got the masses guessing well done tc, 2 mins before me
  19. Lentinus tigrinus. Was gonna be my next educated guess :sly:
  20. Be as hard as you want, like a challenge
  21. I don't think its a Chanterelle, the gills are too crowded and too much like gills. Wondered briefly about Pleurotus, but not with those scales on the stem and an umbilicate cap. Best I can now think of is a Clitocybe (houghtonii? Unlikely), although I can't find any pure white, with stem scales, and the pic looks like it is possibly a clumping fungi, so another wall also the orientation of the stems suggests it is growing horizontally from its substrate, ie, a trunk or log. Another clue?:sly:
  22. Oudemansiella mucida?
  23. Thank you do any of these exist solely on humans? Just curious...
  24. Obviously no chin strap on the helmet. A good thing in this case? :sly:
