Horses are now kept in several of the fields we walk Millie through and we spotted these huge mushrooms growing on a pile of horse manure. Googling them I found out that they are Egghead Mottlegill mushroom which typically grow on dung!

Day 76 - March 17th


Whilst going to a dentist appointment today I parked in the supermarket car park. It's interesting to see how busy the car park is. Today it was busier than the last time I was there but still no where near as busy as pre-pandemic.
