    Climbing sling to hang a DD Hammock

    Worked for me too - I saw your post on slings and having some kicking around tested it out last week and then tried it for real this weekend - very secure and very quick to set up and take down.

    Ray Mears Survival ITV

    A bit different to his usual programmes but enjoyable and informative non the less. Would have been a bit more bushcraft orientated if he'd have gone into detail on tracking, rather than a post production effect highlighting the print.

    (More) Utterly Ridiculous = £119:99 + £5:99 P&P

    I'd buy one of those key widgets *if* it was in the 20 quid region - there's no way anyone sober is going to buy a machined piece of titanium for 120. Anyone know of a similar looking/functioning item at a sensible price ?

    Utterly Ridiculous = £109:99 + £5:99 P&P

    outrageous - i'd pay 75 quid tops for that ;-)

    What would you change about your mora clipper?

    Since I managed to snap the blade on my first one, I'd vote for a 3mm thick blade so it can take a bit more abuse.

    Mushroom ID course - 1/2 Day @ Wetherby College

    This sounds useful - I'd like to have a go at eating some wild mushrooms but SWMBO is terrified I'll end up eating the wrong ones.. Let me know what they say if/when you manage to get in touch.

    Trig, as in trigonometry

    I'm a bit rusty on this stuff myself, but I think it's Sin A = opp / hyp (from soh-cah-toa) so : 40 / 148 = 0.270270 arcsin 0.270270 = 15.68 degrees which on a triangle that has long adjacent and hypotenuse sides and a relatively narrow opposite seems about right. does that work?

    Robbed at the door

    So the solution is life imprisonment meaning exactly that, resulting in no paroled psychopaths re-offending and if there is a miscarriage of justice society won't have executed an innocent person.

    It's starting again .....

    Hopefully the implications of this ruling: http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/tv_and_radio/article6424331.ece will spell the end of it all as wannabe z-listers demand the same rights as employees on 'real' TV shows, the question is : will the time slots of...

    Woodsmoke 'Woodlander' course, 3rd->9th May

    I booked via the webstore - not had confirmation yet though. I guess they're out and about. Myself and Simon (assuming we both get booked in) are planning on setting off around lunchtime from Lawnswood (our office) - I'd offer you a lift but he's driving - if you want to car pool let me know...

    Woodsmoke 'Woodlander' course, 3rd->9th May

    If I can organise it, I'm hoping to do the axe workshop at the end of the month. It's amazing how much hard work with a knife can be replaced by a few cuts of a well controlled axe. I'd like to have a go at the abo course but I'll need to improve my skills a lot before attempting that.

    Woodsmoke 'Woodlander' course, 3rd->9th May

    Hi All, Here's a few pics and thoughts on Woodsmoke's excellent 'Woodlander' course I attended (and passed with a merit!) 3rd-9th May Myself and a bloke from work were using basha's - nearly everyone else was in a tent, that turned out to be a good idea (for them) as it rained a lot...
