That's a long list of runners for the bake off - looks like the Grand National. May I post a couple more entries? Please add another John (and perhaps another Helen) for a day visit on Saturday and another Dan, local lad, for the camp. Dan will let you know his plans asap.

see you

Another great weekend ! Friday a lovely walk with Skate , all along Fairy Glen , crystal clear river and a lovely old spot i used to camp , donkeys years ago , and a bit of derelict building nosing on the moor , thanks Al magic day .

Friday evening , my second oldest Jess ( now a member on here ! ) came to camp for the weekend , great time and she is now a convert ! First time i have had my hair cut in the woods ! Saturday night third oldest Emily returned from a drum and base event in London , and came and joined us ! We cheated a bit i went down the Indian takeaway and we ate like lords around the fire ! ( still hot )

They said they really enjoyed it ( despite the rain on Sunday morning ) They both mucked in with firewood gathering and other woodland chores ! And are really looking forward to the meet , as is their older sister Hannah , who was too unwell to join us for this weekend . So there will be 5 noisey Wilsons for Dartmoor 6 , to contend with ! ( well except for Katie , the quiet one )

Thanks girls love Dad xx

Oh ! Forgot to mention on our walk , near Haytor AL and I found a complete Dartmoor pony skeleton , whole skull with teeth, already spoken for , but i have two complete hooves , so for the more macabre and interesting of you the first to baggsy them , they are yours , make good pots , ashtrays , ornaments .

The skeleton was completely stripped by fox, corvids and insects , but perfectly bleached , seemed like a good idea , until i had carried it about a mile , and got some funny looks from the grocks walking along the road back to the car !!

Great walk Ivan, keep expecting to wake up with that pony skull next to me in bed but then I remember that I haven't upset you lately :deadhorse:
Don't forget the next walk has to be even better.
