    Tai Chi or other types of gentle exercise

    At the weekends I get plenty of exercise. Lots of walking, pushing heavy wheelbarrows uphills, moving heavy 75Ah leisure batteries around for electric fences, bashing in wooden fence posts, sawing branches off hedges, trimming foliage and nettles by hand using shears, raking up horse poo from...

    Open question - Financial

    Personally I wouldn't take a risk buying silver from Ebay as there are too many scammers. The safety of a reputable established bullion dealer like Chards or Atkinsons is a better option. However buying from a trustworthy long-term forum member on here such as Dale is also another safe option.

    At roughly spot price plus a bit extra to cover the postage that sounds like a good deal. :)

    Open question - Financial

    Short term trading isn't usually my kind of thing either. I prefer being a long term investor as it is generally less risky and more likely to make a safe and steady profit. However sometimes such an obvious and easy short term trade opportunity presents itself with high upside profit potential...

    Open question - Financial

    Oil has been doing well so far this month. With things kicking off in the Middle East last night I expect both oil and precious metals will continue going up further next week when the markets open on Monday. Unfortunately. :( https://in.tradingview.com/symbols/OIL_BRENT/?timeframe=12M For...

    Charity

    Oxfam is another one I avoid. I forget why now. But there must have a good reason when I made that decision. :D

    Charity

    Usually I don’t tell anyone what charitable work I do figuring you’re probably doing it for the wrong reasons if you feel the desire to boast about it. However as you asked a specific question I’ve answered it. Sometimes I also do other charitable work whenever I see an appropriate opportunity...

    4000?

    It's all about the reaction score to messages ratio. :D I'm on about 72% reactions to messages. Can anyone else's beat that?

    4000?

    Not a real bushcrafter? I've never attempted bushcraft in my life yet I'm already north of 500 posts in just a few months. It's a funny old world eh? Still, it's a pleasure conversing with you (and everyone else). Strangely I seem to have more in common with you guys than I do with 'normal'...

    Hello and welcome to the forum. :) Is bushcrafting in the US much different from over here?

    I suspect that we all have an idea what chimpy leon might be implying. However as we no longer have freedom of speech here in the UK the specific words cannot be typed on a public forum for fear of a visit from plod for a NCHI.

    Apologies. We had crossed posts. I was still typing my reply before I saw yours. :) Do you have a link to the facts and figures you're referring to so that we can see them?
