Sparassis crispa!

You seem to imply that being, how shall I put it, wary of spiders and creepy crawlies as a bad thing. I regard things that might kill you without a second thought, such as our arachnid friends, and 'shrooms that look like an extra from Star Wars, as worth avoiding.
You may never reach the age of reason like what I have at the rate you're going.

Perhaps this bleak prospect is what draws me towards self-destruction.

Well Rich managed to flash through it and reach another state. I wouldn't dwell on it too long.

Anyway, I need to away and stir my stickleback and piranha risotto

I'm cooking red cabbage and apple with fennel seeds and balsamic vinegar, only I haven't got any fennel seeds or balsamic.

Reminiscent of my old man telling my 10 year old self that "We'll have ham and eggs for lunch if we had any ham, had any eggs"

"You were lucky to even think that..." etc
An interesting thread. Epistemeology eh? Well, most of us are good at the pist bit - not sure I would know any more, but I'm sure one of Claudine's photos is a butt on mushroom. (Every Lidl helps)
Nothing like someone blowing their own Pleurotus eryngii.

I ordered, Black Pyrennean ham as a starter followed by a Rib steak and a large side salad washed down with a reasonable but not fabulous Chablis. Now drinking 6% Fischer beer from the Alsace region.
Enjoy your peasant gruel.

are you particularly small, walk with a limp, speak with a lisp, having a 'roving' left eye, terrible wind problems and an attitude towards tall people? if so then you may very well be related

Small and limp ... in parts
Speak with a lisp? No, nasal west country in a mildly Bucks and Berks manner
Roving eye ... both eyes rove particularly in Russia it seems
Wind? Er yes, I'm a bloke.
I find all tall people have altitude .... that's all.

Nothing like RichP then.
