Excerpt from The British Mycological Society Transactions, Vol. 9: 29 September 1923

The Spring Foray was held during the Whitsuntide holidays, with headquarters at Norwich. On the Friday evening about fifteen members assembled at the Norwich Museum, in the old Castle building, and were welcomed by the Curator, Mr Howard, and members of the Museum Committee. Interesting features of the building were pointed out, and the evening ended with a climb on the battlements from which a magnificent view of Norwich and the country round was obtained.

During the week-end the weather was dry and for the most part hot, as it had been for some time previously. Consequently the harvest of fungi was unusually small, even for a spring foray.

On Saturday, June 3rd, a delightful excursion on the Broads had been planned through the generosity of Mr Adcock, who placed his houseboat at the disposal of the party. Starting from Wroxham, the boat was towed by a small motor-boat as far as Woodbastwick, where a landing was made. The party was met here by Mr John Cator, and under his guidance Woodbastwick marsh was explored. Amongst the first finds was Puccinia Pringsheimiana, growing in abundance on wild Black Currant.

After lunch at Homing Ferry, motor-boat and dinghy were requisitioned to take members to South Walsham, where woods belonging to Sir Bartle Frere were worked. Here the only find of note however was a large partial ring of the Giant Puff Ball, Lycoperdon giganteum. Two huge specimens were secured for exhibition, and provided some merriment on the homeward journey.

Mr Adcock entertained the members to "high tea" at Horning Ferry Inn, after which a most enjoyable day finished with the boat trip homewards by way of Wroxham Broad.

Sunday morning was free, and many members took the opportunity of being shown over the Museum by the Curator.

In the afternoon a tram was taken out to Trowse, and a raid was made on grounds belonging to Mr and Mrs Colman, by whom the party were entertained to tea. A small gathering of Hvpomvces aureo-nitens was secured in the woods, and in the garden of Mrs Colman's house Mr A. Adcock detected some lilies attacked by Uromyces Lilii.
