BushMoot: Come along to the amazing Summer Moot 31st July - 5th August (extended Moot : 27th July - 8th August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
This - absolute bargain.
I was concerned that the paperback version was going to be lesser quality and smaller but its full A4 and FULL of colour prints. Excellent value - going to enjoy digesting it this weekend.

Have you given your mincer a go yet?View attachment 102440
Fed up with the supermarket or butchers mince burgers, dropped an offer on this mincer and won it.
I have, I minced brisket and lean chuck, ran it through twice, and had the best burger in a long time.
Needed a bit more fat, lean chuck is lean so only the brisket added any fat.
technically not "buying" but bartering instead, but a friend went to nicaragua over easter to visit relatives and bought two slingshots from a local corner store (i jokingly told him now he's an international arms dealer... ) -- one was a gift for me, in exchange i gave him two wooden spoons i whittled
I got a middle aisle special, one of the Aldi hammocks just on sale - not taken it out of its packaging just yet, but according to the package instructions it includes a net, straps and tarp, looks promising, and for less than what have paid for a round of drinks down the pub.
Lots of goodies today with my monthly trip into the nearest town. A good rechargeable battery bank, reduced to £15 in morrisons.
A new fire blanket, to go with my fite extinguisher, only a metre square, but useful and nessasary in the kitchen.
Over £30 worth of plants for my bee garden, and hanging baskets,
a new outdoor thermometer and another lightweight watering can, from the garden centre, and another rat snap trap....
.(yes, they are back! Got 3 last night! Mom and two babies.)
Silcock key,
A 5 ltre drybag ,
small foldable, and lightweight firepit/bbq,
rigid 10litre water container with tap, and a large bag of marmite crisps..... my favorite flavour. Not available where I live.
Plus my monthly g/f food shop. Phew! My card is wilting, And so am I!

Drybags do make you question quite how backpack manufacturers define litres.
An All Seasons 3 x 4.5 mtr pop up gazebo for the Classic pressure stove and Lantern meet at the end of the month. They had a time limited 27% off on it so I grabbed it
Walls would be handy for that Steve.An All Seasons 3 x 4.5 mtr pop up gazebo for the Classic pressure stove and Lantern meet at the end of the month. They had a time limited 27% off on it so I grabbed it
They would indeed Colin which is why I've just changed the order to one with side panels. They did have that reduced until a short while ago

Come back from the car boot.
Amid other things I have a couple of Ali plates divided into 3. one half and two quarters.
And a Tower brand kettle, the old fashioned type but with one advantage over many others; the handle is rigid but it folds down.
Also a can of gas. Thats half my summer fuel for £1

Tengu..don't hit me!!!
5 meters of 60 cm wide wool fabric. (£10)
I'm jumping with glee.
I have dreams of a full length, very full skirted medievil style kirtle. Perfick!
Now I just need the linnen for the under kirtle. I can now afford to buy some good linnen, as I got the wool fabric so cheaply.
