They're Good Old Fashioned Eating Mushrooms (post 3435)

Double bill of mushrooms today, a WHOPPER of a wild bracket mushroom spotted right outside our flat for starters. Not actually eating starters, it doesn't look like it's an edible one to me, but I will go off, look it up and come back and change this post to make it look like I know what I'm on about if I'm wrong. The other one is the huge frightening white cap mushrooms that are growing in my cupboard. Don't fret, I did plant them there, it's a little grow your own kit from the garden centre. They are edible, I hope, as I harvested some and had them on toast for breakfast this morning. They've been much slower growing than expected but when they started they were suddenly HUGE!

Got organised enough to listen to new stuff on the IPOD this morning. Gave Kiss Symphony a go, I thought it would be more classical and maybe we could walk down the aisle to I Was Made For Loving You or something, but no. It's still good, but it sounds like a regular KISS show with some cellos and things in the background. Also I listened to The Bluggcast in the proper way, via www.ipodder.org, and it was great.
Not a bad commute in from Folkestone today, we got a table (yesterday we had to settle for normal seats, which Clare doesn't like, so I had to put her in the overhead rack) and I slept a little. Some gimp's nokia phone kept going off though, if it was you TURN IT OFF BEFORE YOU GET IN THE SLEEPY CARRIAGE. The first carriage is the sleepy carriage btw, or any carriage where you see me, trying to sleep.

do they take you to a higher level of consciousness?
anyway, how good are the album releases next week? cant stop listening to dont phunk with my heart - that's a bad tune.
my main news is that after 92 hours of viewing i have FINALLY finished watching the West Wing. All 6 seasons and all i can say is i feel pretty empty. I thank the Lord that the cliff hanger for end of season 6 wasnt too bad compared to previous seasons - it was actually quite weird - almost not cliffhanger-esque and more end of chapter. although it cant be the end cos they're doing another season, albeit with a cut down budget so apparently there's going to be large scale culls. will be martin sheen's last season of course - im guessing he costs a lot.

My bro in law to be suggests that the big mushroom in the tree is a razor strop fungus, doesn't look like any of these though. It's hard to tell just from my snap though.
I love The West Wing, we are still on series one though, only a few disks in, we are new to it. No more spoilers please!
