The message m
from Tim Challenger "timothy(dot)challenger(at)apk(dot)at" contains
these words:

Come a damp day after a warm period in late summer here and you'll see
loads of people out in the woods collecting baskets of "Schwammerl". I
don't recall ever seeing anything like that in the UK.
I'm sure some do, but nowhere near the scale it happens over here.

No. A long time ago I had to physically defend my basket of mushrooms
from some concerned woman who 'knew' that they were toadstools, and
therefore poisonous.
