I had a day off because the school I work in closed due to snow:happy-clapping: so my son and I went to Troserch woods to try out the Honey Stove properly for the first time.

That's a neat little stove; looks like it would be a lot more fuel-efficient than a campfire. And I really like the concept of a day off because of snow!

That was nice to see, thanks.

I used a rat-tailed file to make a concave shape on the end of my ferro rod striker, it now throws much better sparks, my son finds it much better now. Might be worth a try.

Thanks for the comments guys.

This is Britain and everything stops here with an inch of snow. Personally, although I'm not complaining because I enjoy 'snow days' I think it's ridiculous that due to the 'blame culture' health and safety forces us to close the schools just in case a child slips on ice. Also playing conkers is banned just in case a child's fingers get hurt, but that's another rant.

hello,
I've been there when I was down in Llanelli, Situated north of Llangennech village just
on the A4138 link road between Junction 48 of the M4 and the Llanelli crematorium roundabout.
the Troserch woods are located in a beautiful river valley, divided by the Morlais River which runs into the
Lougher estuary. They are ancient woodlands, and have a number of old ruins too. I was fishing
on the Lougher estuary too. You've picked an excellent spot there my friend enjoy it to the full :wink:
Regards
David
