i know that we have to be careful which ones we eat, are these ok?

- 22 November 2011 17:20138436that may be a wise decision jeane, i looked at tom's link and reached the conclusion that you can never be certain which are safe.

Audere est facere. - 23 November 2011 18:16138634Wow Martin - that's Fly Agaric! It's a highly hallucinogenic mushroom, probably the reason why in popular folklore fairies are often depicted sitting on them or dancing around them.
I wouldn't eat that one if I was you. Unless you wish to disappear for a week and emerge having flown over Dover on the back of a pink winged elephant leaving a rainbow trail around Burlington House.
Hang on a mo - did you take a bite out of the smaller one? - 23 November 2011 18:17138635That might help having a tooth out next week.... time for a walk
Been nice knowing you :) - 25 November 2011 11:39138868Fly Agaric, very poisonous, witches thought they were flying when they took it !---------------------------------------------------
