I dunno about the knot; I use a few regularly as appropriate to the purpose: bowline, tautline hitch, clove hitch, overhand & variations thereof, truckers hitch (quite a bit more recently), reef etc etc - you get the idea. Two knots which I most definitely don't use these days are those two Ray...

Seconded. They sent me a brand new Squirt (I think?) when the little spring on the scissors snapped off a while ago. Obviously these tools are pretty small, so not up to too much hard work, though saying that I think my scissors broke when I was doing something pretty minor like my fingernail or...

For me it boils down to a few, overlapping issues: time: I've got a family & we like to do stuff together. Mrs DHD & I have little weekends away on a regular basis too:). energy: after work and all the other stuff I do, I can't always summon up the energy to get ready for another overnight or...

Mind you, if you do buy something from Amazon or wherever you are often asked to provide a review shortly afterwards, so I can see that some people might feel obliged to add a comment without much/any chance to develop an opinion - maybe other than on the service they received from the vendor -...

Apologies for a quick thread diversion: didn't know that about clafoute; Mrs DHD has always made it with tinned apricots ( very nice by the way!) We've got a new one to try now, so thanks! Back to the thread.....

I've certainly done plenty of fettling to get my two Tilleys up and running Steve and have some idea how to go about it. I might even bring one of them along. Mind you, I find them bloomin' frustrating at times - as I know do many others! Meanwhile, Broadlander on YouTube has made a couple of...

Interesting stuff - thanks for posting. On a related note, people might also be interested in British Red's recent video on axes, bevels and such.

Could I take the Keela please? PM to follow.

It is good isn't it? And I've commented as such.....

That looks fantastic - as I'd expect! - and great fun too. Very impressive! Sent from my Moto E (4) using Tapatalk

Best of luck with the walk Nobby. Been watching some of your training on the 'Tube. Have made a (sorry, bit modest) donation. Sent from my Moto E (4) using Tapatalk
