Right, right Themilum

With the W in tsWuWm it has no consequences (I may hope), but that little unimportant s had me going through all my dictionary possibilities. On a rare occasion it makes a difference.That piece of text was difficult to me, also for the other two words.

I have read the long post and was happy with all the information. For instance I know that annuals demand sunny spots, but now I understand why. Wish I could see those mushroom areas. I often gather the edibles here in autumn,. Most loved :
Boletus edulis.

And Milo dear, it was late in the evening for me, I just wanted to understand. My post slipped three times and I typoed away. And then sleep.

I don't go for 'fun' mushrooms anyway. And the poisoness, often prettier ones are safe with me.
Yes, I got the inevitable pun.
