Discussion HERE :) The Grou pages are REALLY annoying as posts can only be 1000 characters long... :rolleyes:

After faffing around for ages trying to find 'the right kind of sticks' to spread the midge net on my Frontline, I figured that everyone surely doesn't do this every time?! What alternatives are there to using sticks to spread the netting? Bamboo cut to size? Tent poles? How do you stop the...

I'm happy to say that Forgewood have said we can meet there again for our May get-together! Will see if we can book space away from the main camping areas this time... Neil will be teaching there on the weekend of 14/15 May, so we can tie the dates together and he can join in a bit. Same...

I've got into the habit now of whittling a spoon whenever I'm out bushcrafting. With the exception of the 'Forgewood (April)' Spoon which I am still finishing at home from this weekend, these are my others (along with the few that I've made at home and my first attempt). 2 x salt...

Starring: Neumo, Peter_t, TJRoots, Jamesk (and dad), Nova and Pinky Really fun weekend. The bluebells were just coming out and although we were in the main camping bit of the woods, it was quiet enough. Pete kindly brought along some new lime wood pieces so a few of us did a little whittling...

Now we're past the initial 'must buy' stage, we've now got a few bits and pieces to sell off (need the cash for other gear)! :D Prices include P&P etc. Please post here followed by PM including your address. Payment via Paypal to be as a gift. 1 x Alpkit Hunka Bivy (black) - SOLD pending...

Thought I should really post my first whittling efforts for posterity if nothing else! :) Smallest spoon was my first and is from an old apple tree that we chopped down in our garden at the end of last year. The longer spoon was made at last weekend's Sussex Meet from birch. Was really...

DATE CONFIRMED FOR 16/17 April As per discussions at the March meet :) Forgewood is where Neil works and we have been offered space to camp in the woods away from the main campsite for £10/person (per night I think?). Can everyone do the third weekend in April - 16/17th. Depending on...

Thanks everyne who made it - was a really fun weekend, despite the last minute venue changes! Attended: Neil1, Pinky & Nova, Neumo, Dark Horse Dave, GrayJay, Peter_t (plus Neil's friends Graham (for yesterday) and Calum) For anyone interested, Wowo was a good campsite and would be good...

Have you bought any new 'shinies' today you'd like to show off? To start off, I've just ordered myself a shiny new GB Wildlife hatchet.... :rolleyes:

Does anyone in the South-East have access to any wood I can use as a chopping block? Happy to pay and pick up (we live near Croydon)

Our first solo 'ninja camp' this year and an excuse to test run some new shinies! :headbang: These included the titanium Yukon stove, Eydon Poppin kettle and DD XL tarp! Total kit including 8 litres of water and food (loads of chicken, Chinese instant noodles and sausages) came to...

Now Sold We've just bought Pinky a new and larger 65l pack which he prefers as he likes to have more manoeuver room. Unfortunately my back is just too small for this to fit me, otherwise I'd keep it as it's a lovely and pretty lightweight pack... :( Full spec can be seen HERE and it...

A question to all the ladies out there - where do you buy your outdoor clothing and are there any particular items you'd recommend? I'm a dinky 5'2" and not exactly skinny, and I'm finding it really hard to find bushcraft-suitable clothing, trousers in particular! Many of the outdoor shops...

The Sussex Bushcraft Group decided on 19/20 March for a gathering. Venue change - please read later in thread!!! *** Attendees: 1) Nova & Pinky 2) lamper (tbc - missus depending!) 3) GrayJay 4) Kepis 5) Peter_t (?)

Pinky is a self-confessed tea addict and would have it intravenously if he could! Does anyone have a small/medium-sized kettle they would be interested in selling?

Can anyone suggest (via PM if necessary), any suitable woodlands to camp in -preferably with permission, but we're not averse to wild camping. We want to take advantage of the fact we're able to get out next weekend for a couple of nights. Surrey, Sussex or West Kent preferred, but...
