:camping:Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone of NaturalBushcraft! Firstly I'll start with the obvious, Im Will im from Kilby which is next to wigston situated in Leicestershire its a small village with lots of fields and open areas with quite a few little rivers one of them being the River Severn i think... I've always been into bushcraft, camping, fishing, firemaking since i was a little tot, this came about from when i used to live in Kilworth House - North Kilworth, now known as The Kilworth House Hotel, As my nan sold it many years ago (About 14?) But i used to live in the House and my grandparents used to run the Challets and Caravanners so i used to always be down there mowing the lawn with my granddad and helping my nan clean toilets, but i used to run around the acres of land climbing trees finding different things to do each day, but my main intrest at 3 years old was making fires, i am captivated by the way the fire moves around and the noises it makes, if my parents couldnt find me about the grounds they'd always go to the firepit ;D So hello from me to you! I Hope to be making a number of posts in the near future trying to broaden my bushcraft knowledge.

Also I am looking for someone who shares the same intrests to meet up and partake in Fishing, Camping or something outdoorsy ;D

I don't think there are that many from Leicestershire to be honest. Having said that, you are pretty central compared to us so you won't have to go to far to meet up with somebody.

Check out the meetings section of the forum and, if there's nothing there, put something up yourself. You never know, someone may be lurking and might sign up as a result of seeing it. :)

Err, I have no idea except it's in Leicestershire and it's pronounced Beaver!! Just appeals to my childish sense of humour and Jonathon Agnew speaks highly of it on Test Match Special. :D
