Hi guy's i really haven't been doing much bushcafty recently, mosly childcare on any spare time.
i have noticed in the last couple of weeks more and more edible plants(berries) being ready, infact i walked home today and nibbled on blackberries, elderberries and himalayan balsam(i think) flower seeds(nice and nutty), i've spent some time repairing kit, making gear, and collecting equipment.

thanks to Damascus, i now have some RAF survival gear (we did a cool swap some time ago:cool: ),

i still have some stuff for lord learcher, and i'm missing the smell of wood smoke!
sorry about not keeping upto date about stuff, hopefully 'll be free to do stuff soon.

thanks for all the well wishing messages!:You_Rock_

Hi guy's just to let you know why i've been away for a while!

My wife gave birth to a beautiful baby boy on monday night,

glad to see people are still doing stuff

hope to see you all again soon!

Hi guys how's it going. What have you all been up to? Anyone been camping?
Me and Lordlurcher have had a few rambles on his turf and an overnight camp on mine.
Had a lot of fun but have'nt learned any new skills yet:) The camping was rudely interrupted by a rave but still managed to get some sleep after a few bevys:headbang:

Looks like fun. I'm off on holiday soon but when the kids have gone back to school I'll try and get out a bit more.

Hi guy's,:)
kid's are back at school, and baby Daniel is very well, and Mrs Rappleby is fine(if tired) so i will have more time in the week to meet up.

anyone want to meet up next saturday 22nd ,

i'll want to stay fairly close to Norwich because of the Baby (within 20 miles-ish).

we ought to organise something an overnighter i personally dont have somewhere to go but if some one knows somewhere that would be good i can do the Thetford area, so depending on location who would be interested and what date (cant do 06/10/07) maybe a couple of weeks time after that, the spot where jay jay was, looks great.:approve:

I'm away for a week in November but with enough notice I could probably swing an overnighter.
