id make shore you have a good knife and some way off makeing fire then start geting the rest as you go along matehave fun

look at post #1 ... thats exactly what i've done

oh and don't worry , i will ..

i will probably end up enjoying the solitude but sort of wish i had a like minded bud to share the journey with..

the mrs is great in as much as she encourages me to do the things i enjoy and even got me a bushcraft cd rom book for crimbo along with a few other bits and bobs BUT she draws the line at being out in the dark and cold even if she wants all the benefits of being able to have a hot brew when out on a walk !!!!....

There are loads of people and meet ups on here bud so i'm sure you'll get drawn into the community soon, and thats when you really start to learning, my advice to you mate is to get along to your nearest meet and watch,try and chat, best way!
