Hi Jan...the only thing i could find remotely like yours is possibly a member of the Sarcoscypha family of fungi but am i know way confident.

Thanks for looking Dave,you could be right.

I wonder do we have anyone who is a fungi expert ?Its getting the time of year for them and it would be good to know a few general facts about them.
The ones i have had in my garden seem to appear in strange places and i wonder where do they come from etc?
