these are definitely not saffron milk caps.

(the milk has to be saffron-orange coloured).

dunno what they might be otherwise? maybe a false chanterelle.

STOP EATING WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT!!!!

NEVER EVER, eat a mushroom or any other wild food for that matter unless you are 100% sure that you know what it is. Think, would I be sure of standing up in a room full of mushroom experts declaring what mushroom this is. Oh and put a top on, are you not getting cold up there in Scotland.

I am sure they are not but they are close to the Omphalotus (Jack-O-Lantern), a mushroom that glows in the dark. Be very careful as they could kill you.

False chanterelles aren't in the lactarius family (do I mean family?).

It _could_ be mild or tawny milk cap, but it's hard to say. The former is more common than the latter.

I guess that's what the Darwin Awards are for. There's more than one species that look more like a Saffron Milkcap than these which are also poisonous.
