    Your medical kit - its a mess!

    I remember when the defibs first came out it was possible to shock without VF being recognised. things of course have changed and it's not now possible to shock unless VF is noted which makes things much, much safer! Insurance in general isn't a bad idea i think. of course it's up to the...

    Your medical kit - its a mess!

    OK, i didn't read anything about the recording. If anyone ignored the instructions for 7 mins they should be told off. First aider or not. That is not the actions of the average person. Also, this was a while ago and defibs are much better now and far more people have experience/ training with...

    Your medical kit - its a mess!

    A case that's settled never went to court therefore was not won/lost. that's the point of settling. there is an argument that SJA were not 100% sure they would win, otherwise they might have wanted to allow the court decision. However, there are very few cases that go to court where one side is...

    Your medical kit - its a mess!

    According to this report of the case https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111/j.1468-2230.1990.tb01810.x it was not successful and the SJA won the case. It was not settled and no guilt was placed on either SJA or the first aider. At least i think that's how it reads On that basis, there...

    Your medical kit - its a mess!

    I'm not aware of a successful case of it in the UK it's possible someone may have tried to sue but it got dismissed. or it may have happened in another country with a more litigious outlook. or it may not have happened at all and the 'risk' is all made up...

    Two New Ray Mears Series

    It's a while since i watched the Rogers Rangers program so i may be wrong but IIRC he was telling the story from the point of view of the bushcraft/ survival skills and techniques used, not who was on the 'good' side.

    Leatherman Surge Pancake Sheath

    Hi Stuart, welcome to the forum. i would say 3mm will be fine for the back. if you have something thicker by all means try it but don't worry if you don't. I would be happy using 3mm all round tbh. Good luck with the retirement adventure

    Air Pistol - Suggestions.

    Not sure if you're thinking of an air pistol or airsoft pistol with airsoft you'll be able to get the same style grip etc as your LBP. i shoot a 1911 style LBP and there are huge numbers of 1911 airsoft stuff out there. airsoft shoots the plastic balls about 5 or 6mm in diameter and normally...

    If you could only keep one Bushcraft skill?

    i think problem solving and lateral thinking. Not a 'skill' in the same sense of the word but bushcraft does teach those soft skills

    Stirring paddle

    Cedar i think A woodland we have permission in felled some and we planked a couple for them. It was a fun project but the two sanders i had were on their last legs and it proved too much for them! Good excuse to get replacements though:dancer::beerchug:
