#fungifriday Fungistadores. Its been a while I know, but I’m back (for today at least). I try not to repeat any but this was a cracking example of some Chicken-of-the-Woods. Very edible and if cut into strips, sautéed overnight and fried the next morning you have delicious strips of what your tastebuds will believe is chicken. Found in Ashdown Woods (Oxfordshire, UK). Happy hunting.
Good luck to the boys tonight FA Wales 🏴 mission one of two, I've got us beating Finland 2-0 tonight at Cardiff City Stadium.
Then onto Poland or Estonia in the final next Tuesday, for our place at UEFA EURO 2024 in Germany this summer!!
What are your predictions? (Stu)
