Your first mushroom request is psilocybe subaeruginosa except the one in the second picture of that lot of 5 images looks to not be a P sub. You should double check that one carefully. The rest in the first lot of your pics are subs.
Your mushroom #2 is not active, maybe a gymnopilus sp.

immature examples, not just smaller.
I see alot of bruising on the stems and caps on your subs.
#2 Is probably a Cortinarius species & is likely toxic.

They aren't subs, but will you take a close up of the gills please? They what they might actually be is Craterellus tubaeformis (yellow foot chanterelles), which is a good edible.

Biggest giveaway with subs mate is a really firm stem. The mushrooms that have weak/crumbly/hollow stems are rarely subs unless they are immature and waterlogged. There's always bluing on subs, whether it be around the edge of the cap or on the stem. Also smell them mate, very distinctive IMO.
Congrats on the find mate good job
