Works for me! Couldn't we arrange something sooner?
Very well mate, hope things are good with you too.
That's not my experience. I've been as busy as ever, more so since I retired from work. It's true that this and other Bushcraft Forums have...
Hi Bri! Somebody was only asking about you just the other day, can't remember who it was though. Proves you've not been forgotten though. As far as I know you never left the 'gang'. :)
It is nice to see that many of the local 'gang' are still about, special mention to Ian, Ammo and BJ. I think the Facebook phenomenon has overtaken the forum scene, though the lovely Fishyfolk keeps...
Nice to see you're still alive and kicking Ian. :)
Happy New Year Rune. I look forward to your interesting and amusing posts in 2017. :)
Me too. Only Wayne could say for certain as he was the mover and shaker behind NSB, but I think it's been dormant for more than a year now.
I feel another get-together coming on.
Well done to you and your son. As usual your posts are great to read and the first thing I look at.
As Woody says, you really need to get a book on plants.
Definitely not Common hogweed, the leaves are all wrong. Hemlock has purple blotches on the stems. Probably Sweet Cicely. Common Hogweed and...
Resistance is futile! :D How long do you think you can hold out? ;)
First car, now rod - you aren't having much luck Rune. They come in threes so prepare for the next one. :D
Congratulations and well done. I think most on this forum will be quite jealous. :)
Shed loads. Most happening on and around Dartmoor but most of it later in the year. Keep your ear to the ground here and elsewhere.
Beautiful idea, beautifully put. Like Saxonaxe I considered keeping it, to send to the unbelievers.
Wayne was one of the 'others' I was thinking of. It's a tragedy that so little happens in this area, I usually have to travel down south to get any action - and there's plenty happening there (spare...
Myself, and others, have, in the past, tried to kickstart activity into Northwest England. This has had limited success. A few bimbles have led to a few of us getting to know each other. It has not...
Lucky Rude - your dutch oven wish was fulfilled! :happy-clapping:
A very shrewd choice IMHO, glad you are happy with it. The extra 20 will give you extra flexibility and I think you will find the design more comfortable to carry than a military style bergan. :)
As David says, the link from Ehecatl is spot on.
This is why I love our hobby/interest. To really appreciate and optimise what we are doing we have to learn a bit about rocks, weather, trees,...
The rule of thumb is use igneous rocks, such as granite or basalt, but don't take them from a river. Any sedimentary or metamorphic rocks are likey to explode when heated in a fire.
Flint was...
It would help us to help you if you told us what you plan DO.
A question that runs like: I plan to be an engineer, which tool should I buy? Is almost impossible to answer. I shall be removing...
That had me laughing! :D I fear you will never see it again Rune. :(
I have everything from a dutch oven through to a titanium cookset, with a lot of other stuff in between. It depends on what you will be doing and what your personal preferences are. None of the many...
