Hi TP,
The first one, with the pink flowers, is London Pride -- good to eat and here is our entry for it:

Re the second one -- yellow flower -- I thought it looked like Cat's Ear, but looking at the leaves I don't think it is. There are so many plants that have similar flowers, I'm going to ask Lin to have a look and see what she thinks. It's really familiar to me but I can't place it.

Hi TP.
The yellow flowered one could be Mouse Ear Hawkweed (especially if it is hairy) or one of the many hawkweeds as some are seen here.

It is a feed though so sticking with the ‘in moderation’ rule it will be fine.
