    Just completed Advanced Explorer First Aid course (four day) with Forest Knights in West Sussex. Excellent course, well-informed tuition and realistic simulation exercises made this one of the best first aid courses I've taken. If this had been classroom based my mind would probably gone for...

    Advanced Explorer First Aid Course

    Fantastic course, excellent tuition, great company; thoroughly recomended! If I'd been doing this in a classroom my mind would have wandered off-topic. Wayne's style and location kept me (mostly) focused from beginning to end and kept it great fun too. Considering some of the sobering...

    Top points Gregorach but have to correct a slight historical inaccuracy, it was the Belgians not the Dutch - the Dutch were impressing everyone with the size of their muskets in the Phillipines. Hadn't really thought out the instances of suffering from everything I buy although you know that...

    Natural anti-bacterial

    I've used organic neem soap for years. It's reputed to have strong anti-bacterial properties. Haven't ever had any nasty infections from camping. Only problem is my local indian food shop has stopped stocking it so I'm down to my last 4 bars. :(
