    Trip to Hopsfjellet mines 16. may 2010

    Hi Tor, Nice trip. I love old mines. I like the way you casually throw in "I found a reindeer antler and took it with me. Could be of use someday." Very envious! Cheers, Steve

    Almost lost my Mora Clipper....twice

    We had a geology field trip to the Isle of Skye when I was a student. Geologists use layers of similar features, such as fossils, to mark time as they are laid down at the same time interval. We joked about the 'Skye Student Geological Hammer' horizon as several were put down and forgotten...

    Ah... yes well I am going to be buying a rifle for my daughter to use as she is keen to start target shooting. SWMBO not altogether sure about that to start with... let alone spending >£300 on one ;) Lovely piece of kit though (hangs on tight to wallet). Cheers, Steve

    Two new kit ideas

    I think lots of folk have a bottle labelled with a 'P' for... Your idea sounds like a type bottle I used to use for photography. It's a concertina shape to alllow you to exclude all the air after you have poured some deveoloper out of it (prevents the stuff oxidising). Have a look at...

    Bushcraft Humble pie!

    I thought that was pretty clear. A recognition that he had upset some people. An apologetic tone stating that some of his posts had been inappropriate. A promise to try to be more considerate in the future. I think that a promise to try to be more considerate is a more honest and...
