    A day in the life of Shambling Shaman

    Really enjoyed that :) I've lived in town all my life - I can't get my head around taking the kids to school via boat :D:cool: Just out of interest where's your nearest shop or post office?

    Argos Now Sell Trangias

    I got my backpacking tent from Argos for less than £50. It's brilliant and very roomy too (for a one - man anyway) :D . Agros seem to be improving with their outdoor/ hobby gear range every season :)

    How much has this site/ interest cost you?

    My loss was on a hammock. I'd seen such good things about them on here, and stupidly when out and bought one without researching it further. I used it and detested the thing!! My fault though, and I learnt quickly not to get too carried away with other peoples opinions on kit :)...

    did your parents...

    Absolutely none of my family are into anything bushcrafty, so I'm completely self taught. Which is probably why I'm so slow at it :lmao:

    Abrupt awakening

    Been following this fascinating thread from the beginning, though like shaman said, it shouldn't really have needed starting in the first place. I hope to wild camp up in Scotland at some stage - one thing I've learnt from the thread is to take a copy of the wild camp legislation with me...

    Holiday Entitlement

    Best bet is to give ACAS a call, it can all depend on what's in your contract/ agreed with your employers etc. They are a well known organisation that deal with employment disputes all the time, and there service is free bar the cost of a call (bit like citizans advice organisation, that kind...

    Fascinating subject :) Just done a quick google and found this: http://www.mysteriousbritain.co.uk/scotland/aberdeenshire/hauntings/the-grey-man-of-ben-macdhui.html. It gives a possible explanation for what you experienced: QUOTE: "A more reasonable explanation for some of the...

    A gripe!

    A lot of bushcraft forums members tend to stick to one forum as their 'home', and visit other bushcraft forums for a change every so often (bit like going to your local every night, then on Fri/ Saturday nights going to a different pub for a change of scenery I suppose :) ). It's a little...

    Vegetarian lightweight food, important ingredients?

    Try noodles, quick pasta, biscuits, oatcakes, loads of nuts, dried fruits (prunes/ apricots/ cranberries), packet of grated cheese, and everything else that's been mentioned. Beanfeast (ie that dried meat free mince) is ok, but needs flavouring! Just a quickie; if when you are out in the...

    Adder bite

    Hi Jojo, just read the link; I don't find it 'sexed up' or whatever at all, but maybe that's just me. Blood would have been 'pouring' from Gradys arms as I'm sure he has had a few heart attacks in the past few years (so poss on some kind of blood thinning medication). And I think most people...
