I am genuinely puzzled… I've read this thread from beginning to end, and looked at what is on offer to the vegetarian… and whilst it may seem like an oxymoron, the thing missing from vegetarian meals appears to be meat. Okay, so that may sound facetious, but I don't mean it to be. What I mean...

£13? You got ripped off there my friend… should be less than a tenner for a Mora 1. But yeah, the Mora knives are a good solid start, but you may well develop a taste for a more solid, personalised knife. All about the feel.

Right… so after a weekend of testing, the BT-2 isn't a viable option…. aside from the fact that I got somewhat damp in the structure, there is no way in world I can fit my kit, my stove and me in the shelter, and still function. It isn't going to happen. The camping cot was amazing...

Funny you should say that… do you happen to have a pet tortoise?

Indeed….http://www.liteoutdoors.com I've got the 12"/18" version with the baffles for each. Useful to have two stoves in one if that makes sense. If you have questions, Brennen (the maker of said stove) is very helpful.

Blimey that was a weekend and a half… thank you so much to everyone for teaching me the right way to use dutch ovens, how to look after them… for helping me setup the stove and get it burned in… for rescuing me from the downpour… and for making it such a brilliant...

We cook our squirrels in the oven, smothered in garlic and surrounded by onions. About 45 minutes at 190C is about right for how we like it… but there are some who say 35 minutes, some who say over an hour… I think that is just personal preference to how you like your meat. Then...

No worries… hopefully I know how to use them by the end of the weekend, so its a win win :D I also bought a stainless steel ladle, spoon and grippers as well (although my wife has nicked the grippers and given me the old ones from the kitchen) so we should have everything needed.

It looks like it could get a bit lively in that town… had no idea it was a mining town until I looked it up… be some rum-uns there :D Have you had a look at Gallivare? Some stunning views there… I'm considering arriving there a few days early and spend some time having a...

It wasn't that expensive to be honest Steve… the big pot was £40 something and the smaller one was £30 something… I was far too busy drooling over new sleeping bags and a retro camping bed, but I'll check the receipt. When you think I'll get many uses out of them, its no different to...

Do you have a clicky link to it? The hostel I mean. Yeah, it weighs a fair amount, but won't know until I put it on the scales. My sleeping bags are lightish if not a bit bulky, but they'll compress down… stove and shelter is light enough. I'll try and get some pictures this weekend of...

So bought some gear for the trip today… I have an outer sleeping bag (ex Danish Army) and an inner sleeping bag… should keep me warm. Coat wise got the Swiss M90… I've still got to sort out my Danes-Dog order as well. Been looking at Canadian snow shoes… but I'll need...

We're not short now… I bought a large dutch oven today, and a smaller one just for good luck :D So pot wise, we should have 3 pots onsite… should be enough for all our cooking needs :D

Hopefully Dave will log in and read what i said… and understand that he's our mate. Mates help mates. If a text message goes astray and happens to tell him to check in… well… it is a text message that has gone astray. Anyone who knows Dave personally knows he's a decent and...

Mine is stainless steel… identical to yours in every other respect… but unfortunately I didn't buy it, so I have no idea where it comes from.

Really hard to pick this month, but Dean's picture… wow! How to capture the moment! Whether you win or not, well done sir! I'd gladly display that on my wall.

Same here… I work with different cutting machines everyday. If its rectangles and circles, just send the sizes to either me or Mike, and job done. I was under the impression it was something more complex. Even then, its not really a bother to vectorise stuff… but I've given over...

Unfortunately the police don't actively pursue such crimes in Bradford… hence the death of a WWII veteran who died when he 'wandered into the wrong area'. Hate to say it, but Dave is right in the respect that certain areas are a no-go after dark. Perhaps not the PC thing to say, but I...

Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without a bottle of wine or two :D Looking forward to this weekend… be a welcome break from the world outside the woods. Is anyone attending who is into sharpening knives? I've never bothered to learn how to do it properly, despite many opportunities at...

Alternatively look for a vectorising person… someone who can draw the artwork into the a DWF from your pencil drawing… depending on how complicated it is, it could be as little as a fiver. Saves learning software and spending hours drawing… you'll know it is right first time...
