    Courses 2024.

    I don’t post here very often as I’m not very good at self promotion. Firstly I’m super excited to have been asked to set up a course program in Nova Scotia. It’s going to be an amazing opportunity for UK Bushcrafters to experience a really stunning part of Canada that’s still fairly wild. I...

    Sold Gransfors Bruks Hand Hatchet £85

    I don’t own a hand hatchet. Beth and Karl do. I’m having issues with my hand so a small axe whilst I work on fixing myself might help.

    Kelly Kettle got bashed?

    Mine got crushed by the baggage handlers at Gatwick I watched them drop my kit bag off the side of the airplane when unloading. I was pleasantly surprised that the base was the only thing damaged. the kettle still works it just sits at a jaunty angle.

    WinterMoot 2024 - Festival of Outdoor Cookery

    I'm in the process of doing just that. The writing is easy the photography isn't as fast. Good photos take a lot more effort to achieve.

    Your favourite EDC item?

    My only constant companion is my Iphone 13 Pro. I get stressed if I dont know its exact location. Otherwise I'm not normally far from a Leatherman juice Xe. Non locking sub 3 inch so UK legal.

    Today's Rainy Hike

    Looks rather nice for a wander. Probably not a huge amount of bird life amongst the plantation though.

    Emergency dental course?

    I think dental health is over looked in outdoor first aid. Many expeditions have been blighted with teeth and gum issues. The pain of infected gums and a broken tooth is hard to ignore and will often take stronger pain relief than most folk have access to without a prescription. Antibiotics...

    Land access - seeking and finding permission

    I get particularly cross with people wanting to use my woodland as there personal playground. Here in the south east the population density makes responsible wild camping challenging. leaving no trace is actually very difficult to achieve. Foot paths widened tree roots compressed. Plants and...

    My team will be doing the vast majority of the cooking demonstrations. So if you have any requests for specific activities it’s best to DM and I can organise it.
