Thank you to David G for these photos taken all on the road side in one walk with the dog:
Bonus points if you can name them all, and extra bonus points for additional wild flowers spotted.

I’m going to put my head on the block: are they from L to R, top to bottom:
BV (not quite sure which V…), WA, WS, WD-N, RC and LandL’s? I’m sure someone will correct me if I’m wrong!
Nearly got the points, but you missed the dandelion in the fourth picture with the dead nettles. Also there might be some forget-me-nots in the background behind the red campion. Sorry, trick question.
I can see a lot more! Stinging nettle, Buttercup, some kind of Umbellifer – Cow Parsley, Hogweed?, Burnet?, and the sticky stuff – Common Cleavers, Ivy. And something I don’t know in picture 2, bottom right, with the Water Avens? Is that enough for a bonus point?!
I found an umbellifer flower bud, I think cow parsley, and some flower buds on a herb robert with the strawberries and some definite cow parsley flower buds with the dead nettles, but am struggling to find flowers on the other plants. However you definitely deserve points for spotting so many plants.
I too am not sure what the leaves in the bottom right of the avens shot are. Amazing how many plants can be seen in just six photos.
