I'm pretty sure they are Malcolm but fungi can be confusing at the best of times.

Hi Happyhare

The first one is Stropharia aeruginosa and the second i think could be Amanita citrina, one of the different cap colour forms, as it appears to have both volva on the stipe and a bulbous base.

Hi Paula.

Post 1019 photo 4 & 5 are Clitocybe fragrans, the caps can have this colouration on older specimens.

A pleasure Tabatha.

Your number 1 looks like a Common Puffball in it's last stages.

Hi Happyhare

Your cup fungi is either Tarzetta catinus or Tarzetta cupularis. They can't be separated by photo alone unfortunately but it could still go on the fungi challenge as Tarzetta catinus/cupularis.
