i agree a forum is a much better place to gather information than Facebook groups. The feeds are often messy, and previous posts and info are hard to track when so many people are posting pictures. I only use Facebook nowadays to follow some modelling/wargaming (my other hobby’s) groups...

I'm not sure? I had some time off the forum myself! ;)

I was going to post a thread about how pointless corporate bushcraft weekends must seem to the majority of us on BCUK. To be honest, I have never been on a course. I would probably only consider a mushroom gathering/I.d. Course myself. My interest in bushcraft has 'spilled over' from an interest...

Just pondering the current state of UK Bushcraft. Would anyone else agree that the hype seems to be dying off a bit nowadays? Personally, I don't think its a bad thing. It might deter some of the more stupid people in society becoming interested in Bushcraft and giving us a bad name...

Try these guys for some cool Swedish themed patches for clothing. Some bushcrafty and some military style ones. Including a Swedish flag. Velcro patches for bags are especially cool. Tacupgear.com No connection. Just a satisfied customer.

I think it was caused by basically creating a furnace in the chimenia. It was really going some, as I was burning up all the birch 'brush' that had fallen in the recent high winds. The paper birch was the same volume/weight as regular birch bark. Also, I had too many air vents in the top of the...

Just treated myself to some Swedish M90 camo pants for a bargain price! Needless to say, I will be on here moaning if they don't turn up or are chinese rubbish! :)

Good advice. slow is the key!

Hat cost more than the shirt ! Love the shirt...

Reindeer fur will leave you covered in hair/fur. Much better as an insulator under your body. Chair or campbed.

I got a fantastic fjallraven looking cheque over shirt from Sainsbury's last year. It's made of that heavy cotton, and if it had a fjallraven logo on it you would have think it cost a fortune! Thoroughly recommended.

Fjallraven. If it was actually made in Sweden I could understand the price tags. But not China. It’s prices are astronomical.

So sad. Three kids. Terrible news.

We should do a wine thread?

Awesome knife

Mmmmmm.... Stella......

Got some lovely Hestra glove liners to keep my hands warm in February at north wood. And an enormous bottle of vodka. Which helps me sleep!
