Just a couple of questions, what time are we allowed on the site for and what pitch are we on? :)

Looks fantastic, I use & prefer the leg roll method, have a look at my youtube , I recorded doing it with nettles :)

Anything dry and fluffy, if it's charred it's a bonus :) In my experience, if you find your tinder flying all over the shop when you strike down onto it, try grabbing a bit, rolling it up so it holds together a bit more then place that on the top of your flint, hold it down with your thumb and...

Sounds like a plan Drew.... Dave will you?... please please please!!!!! :D I am confirmed now :)

Very pretty, and the wood should keep the fruit fresher for longer as it absorbs the pheromones given off be ripening fruit! Nice one!

Wow, insane yet brilliant!

I love making straw coil baskets, I tend to give them to people as soon as I have made them so no pics I'm afraid :( I'm very impressed with all the work on here, simply wow :)

Er...wow. I tried knapping at the moot a couple years back and so I can really appreciate the time and skill required for these, I on;y managed a hand axe, which still looked like a lump of flint that someone had dropped in the discarded pile ,even though Will had told me where to hit for about...

Very nice, :)

Big hugs to you No Idea, I hope you feel better soon and well done for keeping up with the kids, it would be easy to just ignore them while you were ill. I am very impressed and I love your posts, so refreshing to read and I have said it before- fantastic writing style!

+1 to everything already said... remember your triangles, I find a teepee style fire the best to get damp stuff going, and don't forget to push in the burning twigs from the edges, the ends will be dry :)

Yup, we only had one wasp bother us at the moot :) Dave on the other hand...

I'll have a cast about and see if I can get some more companies involved, this would be a perfect way for them to advertise to a specific group of people, I'm surprised that you didn't get a good response, perhaps if more people emailed or called, we'd get a better result. If any company comes...

I'm so happy to hear this, we are so lucky to have a forest right on our doorstep here, but it seems that the only people that use it are tourists and old folk walking their dogs. It would be nice to see a bunch of kids and parents up in there, but they'd rather go to bloody costas :(

Lots of insects, small flies mostly, the birds are at it constantly it seems and there is definitely a warmer wind blowing!

My mum used to live round there, as a teenager I personally thought the whole place was grey, but you seem to have found a lovley spot! Good going :)

Yes, these work! We had one at the bushmoot last year and it worked a treat! :)

Lovely, very peaceful :) you are very lucky to live there!

@Dave: I was just bored, found a stash of pine resin the other day which I had collected earlier in the year and promptly forgot about. I was looking at the heater (procrastinating really, should be working lol!) and I was thinking about getting the bushcraft kettle on it (it does get hot enough...
