Yeah, I find similar fruits around here as well during spells of wet weather. Something collyboid sounds like a good guess.

My first guess is Gymnopus, maybe Gymnopus dryophilus. Also could be a Clitocybe or Rhodocollybia.

These don't look like the dryophilus I found often but didn't know what species they are (still owe you one for that, Alan). I'd stick with rhodocollybia.
