Yep, and none of those would be fun! Don’t forget, an explosion could be hundreds of miles away - or even thousands of- you won’t be affected by blast but fallout is a huge risk days later if you are in the ‘path’ You can evacuate ‘sideways’ to avoid the plume but might have to go some...

Just nuked work. :p

I doubt they would have returned to normal within 2 weeks, fallen significantly yes, but not back to normal. Some areas would be quite clean (I.e hard surfaces) where wind and rain would have washed the fallout away, but other areas (ditches, drains, grassed areas etc) would be significantly...

Why bother. If stuff gets that bad just use a container underneath and puncture the plastic tank.

Welcome :)

EMDR worked for me, my safe place was a camp fire in a quiet tranquil forest

100% I have complex PTSD, anxiety and , I hold down a good job but I find bushcraft and being outside in a nature a wonderful release and reset and calms my over-active mind and prevents me spiralling. I recommend it. The good thing is you can match you activity to your mind, want to just sit in...

My brother gifted me a George Barnsley round head knife for Christmas, so I whipped up a sheath for it to stop it cutting my fingers off! Should have done a wider strap so the popper doesn’t look so huge Lovely thing to use, it’s so much nicer than a craft knife

They are super. I also use J wood for leather and am going to try ordering from aa crack in the new year aswell One thing I would say is when you bevel the edges make sure your beveller is freshly stripped and super sharp as it’s soft leather it can wrinkle if the blade drags at all

You wait until you start wearing cotton gloves as your finger sweat marks the leather lol

Gorgeous leather, it’s my go to for wallets and purses etc - it patinas beautifully! Where did you buy it from? I can recommend leather4craft down on the south coast - they do online and in person etc

I haven’t read the whole thread, but once you are treated and have progressed through cardiac rehab there is no reason why you wouldn’t be able to return to bushcraft type activities in future, at a level that only you will know based on how you actually feel when you are properly recovered.

Perfect!

I use one, but only if I am sitting or standing around in the rain for ages. I wouldn’t wear one in a forest tbh, and my experiences are no matter how hard it’s raining, when in a forest (dense type) you don’t get so much water down at ground level that I need extra waterproof so I just stick to...

Tea for me, I drink it out of preference for all else! Yorkshire loose leaf in a pot :)

I carry just some basics Small torch and a spare battery Small pocket knife Bank cards x 2 (credit and debit) Modest amount of cash - £100 500ml Drink bottle Phone Reading book My ‘can’t do without’ medications (just a couple) I dress for the weather, but in the cooler months I will put a...

Yeah it was entirely his idea, he put a bark lid on it before pulling it up in the tree!

My nephew and I were in desperate need of some ‘downtime’ and our usual ‘disconnect and reset’ camp out. We headed to our usual spot, the shelter had partially fallen over in a storm but the tarp wasn’t ripped - we left it as will redesign and move it in the spring. Fire pit was fine, and...

I am in my happy place

I have 3 60l drums linked in series with pipes at the top, water enters number 1 and that’s where the majority of the silt and leaves collects, some in number 2 and barely any in number 3. There is a takeoff tap on 2 and 3, 2 quite near the bottom and 3 it’s about 4 inches up so any silt is...
