Newsletter and Website
The January 2008 issue of the Newsletter was recently posted to members.
Some members have asked me if it is possible to display pictures that they have taken of fungi on the North West Fungus Group website. Certainly this is possible and one way of doing it is in the form of a picture gallery as illustrated on this page. If you would like your pictures included please send them to me (note: for copyright reasons they must be your own pictures and you must agree to have your name included with them).
Camilla Lovatt has sent me a short video taken during the residential weekend at Keswick in September 2006. It is available to view on this page. To view it you have to download and install the QuickTime 7 (its free) video player if you do not already have it on your PC. Alternatively, click here to run it directly in Windows Media Player if you have it installed on your PC. The video may take several minutes to download depending on the speed of your Internet connection!
