Appropriate surname for her.
Been a looong time since I went mushroom picking. I get the feeling we were searching for very different things though.
It is pretty amazing the things the police seem to make time for vs. the things they don’t
>in Leicestershire, in search of magpie inkcaps – a rare kind of fungus.

So, not so much foraging but picking a rare species from a site with special protection.
God I hate foragers
