I think you just answered your own question there. Trying heading further north, preferably far north of the border. We a drove through a small chunk of the Highlands last year, the amount of vast, open and unspoilt space up there is quite overwhelming, we are so used to enclosed fields and...

Sounds exactly like the sort of illogical reason our government would use. "Obviously if we make bowhunting illegal, then the poachers will stop using their bows for their illicit activities". :lmao: On topic, i have a love for all tools designed to hurl projectiles over distances, and the...

Forgive me for digging further into this issue, but of interest, where do you think the law stands on hunting with an atlatl, spear or bola? I know game such as deer would be out of the question as there are calibre restrictions on them, but what about vermin? From what i can see, The Wildlife...

Its difficult to determine what actually constitutes "public land" is in this country, if indeed there is any at all. Even places that dont necessarily have any specific owner, such as foreshore, common land and abandoned/nobody-knows-who-owns-it land, i believe may still technically fall under...

Deadly Nightshade, Mandrake and Henbane are all in the same family as Datura, they all contain high levels of scopolamine and will produce more or less exactly the same deliriant effects if ingested. There are also a couple of types of mushroom too that cause similar dissociative mindstates...

I have a pair of British DPM trousers which i sometimes wear if i am out and about, partly because they are so damn comfortable, but also from an "aesthetic" point of view i actually quite like the way camo looks. To be brutally frank, i dont give rats **** what impression i give off to people...

The general technique is similar to archery, but i have noticed that people usually develop their own individual shooting style, its one of those things where there is no real right or wrong way. So you just have to play around until you find what works well for you and then practice, practice...

So what are the retailers supposed to do? Stop selling machetes and knives all together, just incase they get banned in the future? That would be somewhat paradoxical wouldnt it? I dont see what the problem is, these items are completely legal and the shop has every right to sell them openly...

We have tons of damson trees growing in our garden, they just grow wild. I dont want to cut any of them down though, far too tasty. Does anyone know what greengage wood is like? I have an old greengage tree that fell over last year, its more or less dead now and in need of chopping up.

Hello everyone, long time lurker, thought it was about time i dive in. Well my name is Jack, im 20 years and from Essex. I have always had a love of the outdoors, in particular, bushcraft, and survivalist/self-sufficient living, so i think this is the right place for me. I also love making...
