Weather: There had been a recent frost but the day itself was damp and overcast with rain coming after lunch.
Report: This was the day of our Christmas dinner at the New Forest Inn and we only had a short morning foray. A couple of piles of logs near the start kept us riveted and it looked for a moment that we were not going to manage the short distance to the pub! Near the start Roger found the small hairy marasmius that grows on holly leaves - M hudsonii (Holly Parachute) which was the first time the group had recorded it for three years. After leaving the logs Paul found Pseudocraterellus undulatus (sinuosus as was) - the Sinuous Chanterelle which was on the '92 Red Data Book but looks to be removed in the current revision. A realisation that lunch was nearly ready encouraged us to stop turning logs and make for the pub where we warmed up and enjoyed a cooked lunch instead of our usual sandwiches.
