3. Mycology is the study of fungi, most notably mushrooms. As a native Hoosier, mycology knowledge is imperative because springtime is mushroom hunting time.

Sorry for the delay, Koala - was at London Zoo all day yesterday as a treat for Mrs Worrier's 80th. Good call, as ever!

We did! Sue particularly wnated to see the tiger cubs before they grew too big, so we waited a few days for good weather then went for it - temperature in the high 60s and wall-to-wall sunshine. They were absolutely delightful - just like enermous kittens. Could have watched them all day - mum and dad tiger were joining in the fun as well!
