Poncho! In warm spark-resistant wool for chilly nights round the fire in the woods. Thank you Tengu! Z

PM is on it's way to you most excellent Tengu. And for you a mundane link...

One of these years I am going to brew up some ramsons. A couple of years ago I made a garlic chilli and onion sauerkraut that tasted amazing, but was extremely pungent. One day I took some to work for lunch. People some distance away complained to the building management about the smell of gas...

A report on the continuing search for the lost village of Old Horsepath. Z

Thanks Joe That explanation fits. I need to look for other small animals in the area. Z

It's a neat clump of vegetation about 8 inches across. My first thought was some sort of failed bird's nest but it was under a low thorn tree with no sign of anything in the tree. This was the second one of these I found. The first was almost identical in construction and again not under a...

Definitely Dave Budd is the man. He is very knowledgeable about seaxes. Z

The data is available:https://data.gov.uk The problem is finding it in format that you can understand. It would appear that the government doesn't want the public to be able to freely and easily use the data, thus creating a market for companies to exploit by selling it on. The Environment...

I really love the Crannog bag. Z

Nice. Mouth is watering now! Z

I just heard that the show is being cut short due to the weather forecast. Saturday is going ahead but Sunday is cancelled. Z

These should help: http://www.robin-wood.co.uk/wood-craft-blog/2010/12/14/how-to-make-a-new-axe-handle/ http://www.robin-wood.co.uk/wood-craft-blog/2010/12/18/how-to-fit-a-new-axe-handle/ Z

Simply comment in the thread and include a word that will be easy to search for but not often used like "Ftumch". Z

I'd say you were looking good: less reminiscent of Henry VIII and more of Col. Faulkner. The new gear is looking good too. Z

Hi Ashley My advice would be "Get outside! ". There's a risk when you want to copy something you have seen online that you end up wasting time watching videos and money buying kit when you could be enjoying the outdoors and learning first hand from nature. Go for a walk. Take a bag. Take...

I found a BCUK patch the other day that has never made it onto a pack and I confess that I thought that maybe it wasn't worth putting it on as nobody would know or care what BCUK was anymore. Loads of members; few new threads. Threads that just boil down to "take a look at my new video ". Every...

I think people mis-understand what Robin Wood set out to do with his spoon carving tools. I don't think he wanted to sell "boutique " blades; he was trying to provide a set of reasonably priced tools that would enable anyone starting out in greenwood carving to get going without having to learn...

These match quite well: https://www.militarymart.co.uk/swedish-coupling-webbing-system/ A bit small perhaps, but I managed to use the rest of the webbing system to attach them without sewing. Z

Yeah I have had three electric swatters. All now in a landfill. Only the first one was really effective but the handle broke. The later ones just stunned the flies so they would reanimate in the bin later. Z
