has now been identified - and my thanks to everyone who assisted. I've

Is there a national chart marking where they are? We live quite near
the rochdale canal (I can see it out of my window justabouts) and the
thought of them crawling into my garden makes me feel iccky.

I think they're edible - Hugh FW said so I think - but they look
pretty wierd.

Thanks! My OH says I'm being silly - LOL but when I find one in the
garden it'll be me who deals with it.
