Exactly what Van Wild said.

These are steels I made from old files; Most of them work no bother but the odd one wasn't tempered quite right! My flint is all collected either from fields or else the beach then broken down into useable bits. I never have any issues with the flint it's always the steel that seems to be...

these are quite good: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/British-Army-MTP-field-pack-GSR-Respirator-case-detachable-sides-Hunting-Bag/154130871355?hash=item23e2ea743b:g:NysAAOSwvltfgHE- or perhaps...

Would have helped to know you're already fully bombed up paddling and outdoors wise. :) So you're literally just looking for parking/put ins-take outs? :D Well with your previous experience, you almost certainly already know more locations than I do for the sort of trip you mention, so once...

Ah right then so a proper canoe. if you've never had any, I'd strongly advise getting some proffesional coaching. I paddled for a couple of years a bit like too many people, just making it up as I went along and that sort of worked but I never really felt confident deep down. Then I hit lucky...

What are you paddling? You mention "canoe" but sometimes people confuse the actual type of craft and that can make a big difference, so is it a canoe , kayak, inflatable, sit on top? Are you looking for overnight parking, or will you be dropped off/picked up? SOTP is definitely a good bet for...

Well, I tried contacting the BBC and as of today have not had any response. You'd think they could at least acknowledge your enquiry but............ However, last night . on returning from 14 hours of factory toil, I logged on and there was an email from song of the paddle, saying that a member...

tried contacting the secretary via text but alas, thus far nothing. Thanks for the contact though Steve

Well I tried emailing the band and for some reason they wouldn't accept my email! I also looked at the "messenger" box thing but that turned out to be facebook and I don't do facebook. So still hoping someone can come up with the title! Cheers Steve

I'll give the band a try! hadn't thought of that to be honest. Cheers Steve

I know that many of the members here will have no idea who John Noakes was, however I'm hoping that some of the older folk might be able to help me with finding the title of the end tune from his "Go With Noakes" series of truly excellent and inspiring programs back in the 80's. The opening...

Thanks all, I went with 128Gb and get about five and a half hours on 30 fps:)

Can anyone tell me definitively whether I can use a 128GB micro SD card in the Hero 7 Black please? , indeed, what the maximum I can fit? I bought a 64GB card with the camera and in 30fps I only get two and a half hours of storage! okay if your just messing about but I'm wanting to record some...

Sadly not! saw a few leaping just off the stone jetty on Saturday afternoon mind you, well salmon or sea trout. They were big whatever they were.

Visiting relatives who recently moved to live right on the shores of Loch Fyne, I took along my Gumotex Solar 410 Pro and got in some paddling! More to follow eventually.
