Five alive. Which reminds me to get my plants indoors before winter starts or they won’t survive.

A thrilling match, ending in a 4-2 win on penalties for the Northern Irish, after the match ended in 2-2 and extra time did not produce a winner either. The #referee is Joaquin dos Campos (Portugal), with Leo Helge (Denmark) and Sten Ahlner (Sweden) running the line.

When I was taking my photos, Sunday, I noticed another tree stump covered in them. But brambles prevented my going there. On the way I nearly stepped on a twig when I noticed colour on it. Teeny-tiny mushrooms:

Same here. It’s not wet enough yet. There’s good specimens to be found but not in great numbers yet. Except for sulphur tufts:

Me too. I use an app for that, which I then check against Wikipedia. If they don’t match, I will not use the name. From now on, I’ll use LBM as a generic for unidentified fungi. Great suggestion! 🙏🏻

The #referee is Jack Taylor (England), who’d go on to ref the 1974 World Cup final. The first leg, in Rotterdam, had been reffed by Dr Karol Galba (then Czechoslovakia), who in 1966 ran the line in the World Cup final.

I’m not one for gossiping, but did you see that ring on the bride’s finger? Bunch of dough that must cost! Looks like she’s shaken her fannie a lot for the guy

Seen in the first photo, the #referee is Erich Linemayr (Austria). One of the great names of the 1970s.
