And they keep falling I'm afraid... I have cocked up majorly and forgotten wife had told me about a big family gathering that weekend... Oh, and she also mentioned a few times how she took 2 weeks holiday to look after this kids so I could b£gger off on the TGO... Yup, I am gonna owe her for another couple of years yet. Sorry guys, my bad.

Ok folks as spoke about on our FB page. I was asked by Teresa up at Haddo if we could put on a few lessons for the public. Tony has gave us permission to use the BCUK name and logo etc to use where relevant.

I think it is best if we dedicate a certain time for this, shall we say Saturday 1pm- 4pm.

Lessons planned for this so far are:

[h=5]Fire-lighting with fire steel
Bow drill
Different tinder's - natural and man-made
Knots
Camp Craft - table, larder and chair[/h]
If anybody can think of anything else and/or is willing to do a little demo please let me know.

I'm happy to demonstrate how to make purse nets, I might well bring the makings along just to pass the time anyway. I also have lots of thistledown at the moment if that's wanted for natural tinder?

 

[CBJ]

That would be great Fiona,

Thank you.


All the best

Well it looks like I may be able to make this one late [ish] fri to early [ish] Sun.

I see all the food list is taken up - but I will be bringing my own food with me, if any of it is of use in the communal meals I will happily donate it to make up quantity [I'll bring a few carrots, onions, potatoes, stock cube, a couple of tins of something and some pasta or rice]

see you later..

 

[CBJ]
