    First Wild Camp Advice

    Good on you btw for doing something to cheer your buddy up. I bumped into a guy the other week who had come out camping for the very reasons you want to take your friend out..... basically he had been having a hard time, was feeling down but unfortunately had a bunch of couch potato mates so he...

    First Wild Camp Advice

    If I was taking someone who hadn't done much 'outdoorsy stuff' before I wouldn't worry too much about downloading them with loads of knowledge but would probably just pick a stunning location and maybe try to spot some wildlife that they don't usually get to see. A lot of people are bowled over...

    Scotland, a couple of hours from glasgow, when its snowy

    As far as the weather goes we've seen frost on a few mornings around here but throughout the day temperatures have been pleasant. What sort of activities were you hoping to do while you are up here Tom?

    Autumn is here

    Of all the seasons I have to say I love the autumn most. It's almost as though nature saved the most amazing spectacle for us to appreciate and cling on to before the hardships of winter.

    Fungi I.D

    My mistake Cranmere. From what I have read I think you are right.... the psycho active constituent in Fly Agaric mushrooms appears not to be prohibited in the same way that psilocybin is.

    Fungi I.D

    There are loads of them around here at the moment. They are potentially hallucinogenic as others have said. Can't say I've tried neutralizing the active ingredient to make them edible so wouldn't like to comment on whether or not that is possible. Another problem with foraging these as a wild...

    You know it's going to be an interesting Friday when.....

    Thankfully not the sight of my own tibia swotty! Mind you the potential of waking up with broken legs is certainly a possibility when you live with a fiancee as grumpy as mine :)

    You know it's going to be an interesting Friday when.....

    .....you are confronted early in the morning by the sight of someone's tibia sticking out of their leg! Hopefully Monday will be a bit less full on.

    A couple of hours enjoying some decent weather.

    Another cracking day today! It was too good to waste so I headed straight out after tea with the dogs for a bit of chill time. Headed out through the wood which is part of the farm estate. It's mostly Oak, Alder and Hazel but there is the odd Ash and some Birch also. Had a look at Hazel trees to...

    Never lend someone your axe!

    Sandbender, I'm getting angry just reading about this...... you must really want to split the perpetrator's skull! :mad:

    Recommendation

    Just bought myself a DD 3x3 tarp to replace my trusty old army issue basha. Nothing wrong with the basha but I liked the idea of something a bit more roomy and the 3x3 seems to offer plenty of versatility when it comes tarp set ups. I got it online at backpackinglight.co.uk. I have no...

    Pine Marten den?

    I never thought to ask but I know a few people who probably will have one I could borrow. I'm going to try and get one before the weekend so I can put it out Friday/Saturday night. If I get anything I'll post it up. Should be interesting as there is plenty of animal activity in that area.... I'd...

    Pine Marten den?

    Someone I know might have one, I'll have to ask. It's funny.... a few weeks back I had an ideal opportunity to photograph one up in the fork of a tree near this spot but never had a camera with me. Typical! Missed a cracking opportunity to snap a red squirrel the other week also.... it was only...

    Pine Marten den?

    I've found a potential Pine Marten den in a hollow Ash tree. I'm not 100% but something has certainly been coming and going from the tree. I've seen Pine Marten in the area and there has been sign in the immediate vicinity. Having said that there are a lot of hollow trees in the woodland around...
