Hope it all gets sorted quick! Chris

I saw this found it pretty moving. Chris

Brilliant knife for the money, though I don't go for serrated myself. It is not that comfortable in extended use compared to a fixed blade with a shaped handle, but it is a cracking utility folder that will take a real beating. The big advantage is IMO that it is such good value you don't have...

very nice!

Some pictures from a Woodsmoke Autumn Harvest course, all open-fire staples, but utterly delicious! Brilliant school by the way, highly recommended. (No formal link to them just a very happy customer!) Fruit Loaf Part 1 Fruit Loaf Part 2 Pigeon Pie Part 1 Pigeon Pie Part 2 (with jelly)...

Do a search for Altoid on BB. There have been a few threads. This one is great and got me started on the Altoid path :) http://www.britishblades.com/forums/showthread.php?50427-Urban-Pocket-Kit&highlight=altoid Or have you found these already?

I'll take one please! Thanks, Chris

Ooh, yes please, kind of you to do this; I'm very interested to see this knife! Chris

I'll take it! :)

Gorgeous, sorely tempted...

That Barn Swallow Research site is a fantastic resource. Just been reading through it. Thanks for sharing the link. Chris

In France at the moment and would expect to see them by now, we've been here at the same time in previous years and seen lots of them. The barns in question are not due for conversion AFAIK. They have open doors and there is plenty of nest material, hay and stuff. There is however little if any...

General shortage maybe :( EDIT: not in the Yorkshire Dales which is good to hear! Here's a photo of some on a nest in the barn from a few years back. Chris

If the Strongbow doesn't work, you could always try a BigMac. That's usually good for a couple! In fact if you're really crafty you could eat the BigMac and use the empty carton. The constant foraging urge gets 'em every time!

I'm on holiday as most years in Pays de la Loire, France. We always see swallows and they regularly nest in the barns where we stay. This year there are none, at least not yet and it seems to be a bit late? I was wondering if anyone was aware of a particular problem this year or if it is just a...

The local weather sages around where I am on holiday at the moment in western France are predicting a 1976 repeat. Unbelievably dry for the time of year and the patterns are apparently the same as 1976. Farmers anxious. We'll see, all impossible to predict with certainty, but seems plausible.

spot on, thanks for sharing :)

He's good. Great film. There is a pretty nifty one of the aurora borealis on his Vimeo page. With great music! Thanks for sharing.

Amazing sight

Yes it does. Makes perfect sense.
