Maybe have a look at various pate recipes. I have had various offal type ones in france and spain (not that i can remember the names). Either that, Burns night is coming up, have a go at a haggis! ;)

I agree, it's a fabulous course. Learnt so much from it. Far more than i thought i would from an online course. And what is lovely, is that, once you have joined, you have full access for the life of the internet, not just a year.

Was shooting up in the highlands a couple of months ago and our Ghillie still swore by his breeks. Harris tweed and only his 2nd pair in 25 years (apparently). He wore them very loose fitting for ease of movement.

Yeah, i know what you mean, but i'm having to drag myself into the 21st century slowly as well. actually found some useful stuff on there.

We got The New Wildcrafter Cuisine, The Wildcrafting Brewer and The Wildcrafted Fermentation. i believe there is another in the pipeline for next year. They are all good, it just depends what skills you are looking to work on. Worth going onto his instagram account and he has lots of tutorials...

What exactly do you need to know? We have several of his books and have been on several of his webinars. He is a crazy guy, but very knowledgable. Most of his stuff is easily transferable to the UK. he is Belgium by birth, so he has a good knowledge of European plants and species to, and, from...

From everything i have read over recent years, including articles by some very prominent Mycologists, and our own Jeff Dann, there is no evidence that the toxins contained the wood and seeds of the Yew, transfer to the fungi. But as Slowworm said, bits of yew getting trapped in the fruiting...

I spent a couple of days with some Sami reindeer herders in Northern Norway a few years ago. Learnt some really useful hints on winter fire lighting and tracking the reindeer. Was interesting to discuss how modern gadgets really divided various herders, some loving satalite tracking, others...

Well, that puts my meagre skills to shame. So good to watch true craftsmen at work. I do hope these skills aren't being lost with the advent of modern machinary.

2 pairs of Fjallraven Barrents pros, worn pretty much every day for 8 years (granted, i only wear them in the evenings during the week as they aren't chainsaw proof). 1 pair the a@se is starting to go, the others, there are a few holes (most likely fag burns). I do keep them well waxed in the...

Oh wow, didn't know you guys were on here. Roger emailed me for my address to send me a new F-Format. So impressed with your customer service. Cheers

No Pics, but have just finished smoking 2 salmon (after curing in dill, beetroot and Talisker), and curing and smoking 2 full pork bellies for bacon (again, cured in lingon berry and highland park). Problem is now, they all taste so good, i don't want to give them away :rolleyes:.

Was a nice program. obviously saddening that it's a way of life that's dying out, and not just due to climate change, but as the way of life changes in modern times.

I just wanted to say a couple of huge Thank you's to a couple of companies i dealt with recently. First off, Roselli of Finland. I've had one of their great (if not different) Axes for over 15 years. Last year i managed to break the handle and have only just gotten around to ordering a new one...

ooo, good plan. Ta Billy-o.

Hey all, earlier this year i finally succumbed to a Karrimor sf Sabre 45 (after my 35 was retired). However, after using it for a couple of months, it seems to have developed a squeak. It sounds like the F-Form mat is rubbing in the sleeve. After a while it becomes very distracting. Has anyone...

+1 for the MPT ones. Got mine from evilbay for £15. Full length side zips (if you go for the lightweight ones), pretty breathable (certainly on a par with my much older mountain headwear ones they have replaced, just £100 cheaper and in camo). They also fit well and don't seem to want to slide...

Mervg, if you did want to have a look at one, and you're in the west mids, i'd be more than happy to meet up (when we are allow to, of course). I'm in Cov.

try en.flobyoverskottslager.se , they have them but around the £50 mark

Yup, instant freeze dried mash. Nugs, yup, a dehydrator is definitely the way to go. I aways carry a small jar of dried and powdered veg, can be used as a stock, soup or just flavoring. I generally just add whatever i have in the kitchen that's going off or the veg bargain bin in the supermarket.
