    The facilities are amazing by campsite standards. We were off to the edge in a secluded, wooded area complete with beck.

    Favourite Books

    Morning all, Whilst I'm new here, I'd like to start a non-bushcraft oriented (for the most part) book thread. Akin to a 'book-club' if you like. I'd be interested to find out your favourite books in various genres and possible recommendations… For instance, mine: All time favourite: The...

    Navigation books?

    Clearly you think a compass is required... Why not just use it? You're going to learn far more by doing than you are by reading. It seems that this book has distressed you quite considerably so I would really advise sending it back or selling it...

    A walk in the woods

    Hey Woods, Thanks for the pictures and vid :) Sorry to hear about Fred, Zip looked lovely though. Think the weather would have been a little too bracing for me (at least at my current skill level).

    Building a Pizza Oven

    Probably not quite the level you're looking for but the Scout Group that I'm involved with takes a half oil barrel on camp with us and turns it upside down with a hatch cut out of the front. It's sat on bricks and we cook pizzas/scones just on those. It could be a really low-cost solution for...
