The unseasonably dry weather is why there's not too many bunnies around at the moment. The won't drink out of puddles or suchlike and rely on the dew and moisture from plants. As there hasn't been heavy dews (not around these parts anyhow) they have been staying in their warrens. They've...

I'm amused by this thread but it does beg the general question ... do you spend too much time reading/watching/surfing the net for 'bushcraft' instead of actually getting out and putting all these skills (some of which you will never need) into practice? Ray Mears god? probably not .. but he is...

Worked for me ... Mature resident at college nearing the end of my first year (2 yr National Diploma Countryside Management) and considering going on to uni afterwards.

-Switch- me old mate, sorry to hear about the job (and sorry for bumping this thread folks, not been around for a while). You know you're always more than welcome to crash on my floor, i might even be able to put you in touch with a few land owners up this way (should be able to sort out...

Not sure what pair I've got but they're from Decathlon and they are hard as nails as well as comfy. Not to mention they were cheap as chips. I got mine in the hunting section and not the hiking bit.

aww you guys are all going out without me :( Oh well, I've got 600Ha of estate here to play on, so that should keep me going for a while :)

Congrats Dave and good luck in the job :)

Wouldn't it be so much easier if it looked like this ... From http://www.metro.co.uk/news/article.html?in_article_id=77214&in_page_id=34 I'll get my coat :theyareon

I'll be mostly drinking coffee and contemplating my navel. I might even pop out to the shops at some point. Then again I might not.

Aparently I'm "Dole Blaggin' Scum" :240: . Going to college, as an imature mature student, in just over 2 weeks time to study Countryside Management and Conservation. It's only taken 15 years and countless jobs to find out what I want to do with my life and yet this is the scariest thing I've...

I wasn't going to add to this thread (my shots really aren't as good as all the others) but I was talked into adding this one from the moot... Taken with a point and shoot digi cam thingy.

Mate, get yourself into a Jessops, their staff at least have a clue and they are slightly cheaper.

As Switch said, just boiled in water as it has a lovely flavour to it. I'm not sure I want to add any more salt to it but wouldn't mind trying it with unsalted butter. Glad I could amuse you :D

In short, I believe they are out there but I don't believe they would attack people unless seriously provoked. There is lots of evidence to suggest they exist in our wilder places but any of this evidence that is a sighting is the big cat running away. I can understand the people that doubt...

Only reason I could see for not using them is that they're bright blue and extremely bulky. Other than that they make good group tarps. Not sure what part of the world you're in but get to decathlon, they have nice sized tarps which are light for £20 .. well worth it in my opinion. (nope...

I've finally got round to sorting out my moot photos, so here they are. Switch starting how he means to go on Switch and the good Captain The Dunes I was trying to take a serious shot of me in the dunes :rolleyes: Switch collecting his dinner, marsh samphire Look at...

Eh? Noooo, don't thank me .. I'm not the one who held on to it "just in case". I'm glad you've not lost it though Rod, I must admit I panicked a bit when I saw this thread as I remember picking it up out of the dirt but wasn't sure what had happened to it

giz, how much is it going for and where? Reason I ask is that I'm using a Eurohike jobbie at the moment, and whilst it's a good bag that does what it's supposed to I'm looking around for a new bag so that I can retire my current one. I'm not wanting to pay too much for a new one seeing as how...

Maybe I've been out of work for so long the world has changed but surely if your company are asking you to do an exam they would also tell you the best way to swot up for said exam, or at the very least point you in the right direction for some help? Can't offer any help other than "do lots of...

For some strange reason I get approached in the streets by the religious types. I don't have a problem with people having faith etc etc but I do have a problem with them trying to convert me. (I do have a theory about why so many approach me though, I've been told I look like Jesus what with the...
