I was a chef for over 20 years, and in the kitchen, we always used to par-boil potatoes. It makes sure you don't get crunchy bits of spud. In the winter I sometimes use the water I have boiled them in to make hot chocolate as it is very "carb-rich".

Here is another simple recipe cooked up in the woods. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGoT29mEv1g Enjoy ATB Neil

That is spooky....here is a little hedgehog I did a few years ago

Many thanks for your kind words - I'm teaching most days and this lesson is one I have presented several hundred times, so I should be well versed in it by now. Definitely have a go at carving one. I carved twenty or so last Christmas as tree decorations for friends kids and small ones as...

They can indeed - I do life-size ones using my axe and put them up in the trees....I'll try to find some pictures

Probably not this year - my wife is pregnant and due Aug/Sep, so its a push looking after the nearly 3 year old too. On another note....here is my latest offering https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3nkRGedMos

Thank you for the comments. The kitchen box is much admired (and copied to I think). The plain green smock isn't one I made - you can get them from Endicotts in Exeter (£25 I think - and brilliant for work).

Thanks for posting Dave. The feedback so far has been excellent from everyone who has seen them. Malley - I remember that well. I hope you & the family are keeping well. There will be more videos to follow, most things have been done before, so we are looking for things we do slightly differently.

I have one that is identical (well it was before I pimped it) but mine is a Centurion (still canvas & suede).

Many thanks for the kind words Dave. I hope to be making a few more, I may even talk on them too!

Thanks for the nice comments Stonyman. The channel is called Green-Craft.
