Try running a few zig-zag beads of silicone sealant across the mat, bathroom sealant will do but go easy all you need is 1-2mm high beads, this will do the trick, to stop the slipping. Works a treat

Not as much fun as the Boars on Hohne! COAX traverse right - steady - on! Boars in open - ON - Loaded - fire!

...and consultants too.... we are the new forgotten few.....

I was going to go for a Sandra Bullock but although she's my allowed celebrity squeeze, as it's cake (and I'd like to eat it too) and she's a bit on the svelte side - so not much cake!

:lmao:Lol.... I'm not sure if that's craft... or just plain pervy! Do you do a Scarlet Johannson one? ;)

140,000 sq km of fairly flat tarmac. located at various points around the UK (may divide into manageable pieces) various out-buildings and hangars 114 Challenger II tanks plus support equipment (POA) One aircraft carrier - light grey, only used once (small dent from bumping into Plymouth)...

I have a traditional hip flask with a celtic knotwork shield on it which my sons bought for me. And within there is a decent sample of last year's damson gin. Oh yeah and a 3 litre bladder of last year's cider for the basecamp........

Not perfect but you should get the idea.... most important, the shoulders do not carry the weight, the hips do and not the top of the thighs either, the hip bones act as a fulcrum for your body and the legs carry the weight. By having the hip belt properly placed the majority of the weight of...

Gobsmacked! And I thought a 20 foot tall hand holding Excalibur at woodfest was cool..... but knothead... he's the dog's rollocks!

With Shewie on this one. Make sure the distribution goes heavy to core and transfer the weight onto your hips. If the hip belt is not comfortable, either replace it or use another decently padded belt (a hippo or make your own - as I did) and get used to carrying with the weight on your hips...

I'm now suffering with old injuries playing up. Shoulder from dislocation seems to flare up, pop out and take forever to heal, previous breaks ache with the damp and on it goes (all that abuse when I was younger - take note Drew!). The mind is still 26 though...... and thinks the body is too....

Bonnet Mycena? Too early for the winter variety though.

Wow, that's some specimen. I've never seen one and until now never heard of it. Thanks for sharing it with us. You may want to send it on to John Wright (mushroom bloke off the telly) he has previously asked for any rare fungi to be forwarded on to him as he is very interested. his contact now...

good idea but I'd be too scared to go back myself!!

It probably only works in Canada (or USA) but I once scared the living bejaysus out of a tankie colleague of mine by sneaking to the back of his bivvi with a can of compo rice (it is dried rice in a tin). After giving it a bit of a shake and a tap to the side of the bivvi he was awake. I then...

Poached egg fungus - definitely worth an eat. I tried some larch bolete last week - bland and watery Trying scarletina bolete this week (just got to go up and get some). Bountiful parasols this year along with massive penny buns! Have dried (last year) and used jew's ear fungus good for soups...

Here's mine. I add to it virtually daily. most are labelled for ease of identification. http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/116407774413027622942/SmallFungiPics

Hiya Raikey, This has evolved from time in the forces needing to know where everything is, seen or not, and from de-kitting out of the military mind set. I have found that especially on lone trips the discipline of keeping things in some semblance of order (don't get me wrong I ain't tidy or...

Some of you may have seen a while ago that I recycled a bergen and modified my kit to suit the new configuration. I have also had the opportunity to fine tune the set-up and do some minor modifications to the bergen. (see link): http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=61284 I have now...

Did the same sorts of things with my kids from when they were about her age. They are now 21 and 20 and still remember those days (and nights) as their most vivid memories! Better than any others! Keep it up with her and you'll both cherish it forever.
