Incredible thread, dicky! I just finished reading the entire thing. It took over an hour. I can relate to 90+% of the posts. As I read I tried to come up with a topper. Here it is:
...you plan your once in a lifetime trip to Europe and include Stonehenge, not for the stones but for the mushrooms that might grow there.
You go to Stonehenge and spend more time looking at the grass for mushrooms than looking at the stones.
Two other comments:
1. Incredible replies from everyone. I read every single one and liked all of them. My favorite was hard to pick but I did come up with one. Whoever's long list was my favorite.
2. I most identified with CureCat's line.

You guys really have ot get over your fear of cows. Bulls attack sometimes if they are wild and untamed but cows do not attack unless you trip over their calves.

Not a one. That's why I kept looking. I "heard" liberty caps grew there, but I would have settled for anything.

Were you disappointed by not finding any mushrooms?
Do you think that perhaps you were just there at the wrong time of year for them to fruit? Or not ideal conditions?

I am always disappointed if I don't find mushrooms. That time doubly so. I will always suspect someone was there before me. In fact, since then I have heard of them being picked there. At the time no such information was available online.

Well then, learn to hunt mycelium! I found that some good Agaricus subrufescens grow in the leafe litter under Bamboo around here, so I went around grabbing up leave litter and looking for mycelium in all the bamboo groves I visit to see if I can fdind some, and by smell I was able to ID 3 species of the many I encounter that way, so if I do not fill my basket I still fill my head with new mushroom spote, and yes I found a few Agaricus subrufescens patches that way and went back and eventually found the mushrooms themselves, also transplanting the mycelium into mixed compost on a day where I did not find any mushrooms I now have a pinning mushroom patch in my own yard wich is even bettre than having found the mushrooms themselves!

When you occasionally mistake squirrels at the base of a tree for G. frondosa.

The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Mushrooms said, "...the rule of thumb is to avoid any bolete with orange to red pores, especially any that bruises blue."
