Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
If we are to make some tar for the pole ends, we will need to get a large metal paint tin a 5l one or bigger to use as the cooking vessel and a smaller one for the collection one underneath. Does anyone have anything we can use? It will need to be taller rather than it is wide so the tar drains out better.
When I have done this before a 2.5 l paint can full of birch bark yielded about a mug full of tar, so the bigger the better really.

Something's Croped up and I may not make it tomorrow night but will be along on Sat Morning....
I can bring a 5 litre metal paint tin or as I have said before I actually have 5 litres of bitchumen which you can have. Also have the fire drum/incinerator if its required.
Hi, how's the river level, going down i hope. Looks like they had a nice day today hope they have a nice meal tonight. I popped into my local army navy store today and found some 24hour rat packs for £10 each bought 3. I've opened one and was quite surprised how comprehensive it was.
Hope you guys had a great time and that the weather wasn't too unkind. Looking forward to the pictures.

P.S Map legends at Map symbols as well as the very good Simon King videos that cover all we did as well as the easy peasy guide.

A great meet shame the others did not make it, and I only made the Saturday, but still a great time was had. The weather did not really effect us too much, OK a bit windy for the bearing exercise , but still saw a nice heard of about 12 Fallow deer 
.
Thank you very much for the Skill Share Kevin, it was a well put together presentation, and I know from the comments from those that every one benifited, a great success.
The trip to the pub was a nice break from the mud and the food was great, one pub I would recommend for a bite to eat :
