Hopefully coming this year hoping to scrape together funds

Hey, i've been away for ages time to get back into it I'd be up for sept/oct too :)

I really do like this video i have watched it to many times now, glad i finally posted something good lol. Dark_Lighter glad you actually got some use out of it.

I stumbled across this clip on the ikeahacker website (apologies if its been posted before) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzXOVbYUamc basically it's a guy making a bow drill from ikea wooden hanger and then using it to make a fire out of an and some other ikea pieces. I was left grinning...

wow! i probably would have had to sit on the fire to stay warm if i had gone :D

Looks like you all had an awesome time i am sorry i missed it. How cold was it?

That is so amazingly profound yet so simple thanks for that!

I'm really looking forward to this!! I have been so excited about this i haven't slept properly for 2days how lame is that :( i am going to be exhausted by tomorrow!

Hmm Grey owl good point i don't know where my brain is :O i meant charcoal and asked about coal! :( Thanks Mike Ameling, if i can get my hands on some pipe today i may do what you suggested if not i think the vents around the Tentipi should suffice as it was made to have fires in it.

Hi ZDP-189, Mike Ameling and Grey Owl thanks for your inputs! :) Unfortunately i cant set my tent up in my garden as my garden is to small and the builders (we have working here at the moment) have claimed it as there skip! My tentipi has ventilation flaps around the sides at the bottom...

Thanks i think i will! I will be in a tentipi and they are made so you can have a fire inside although i know there is always a risk and always to respect fire. Thanks and i will take care and also bring a carbon monoxide alarm. Oblio13 Thats good to know about elevating the coals but...

Thanks i think i will play it safe and avoid it, it just doesn't seem worth the risk and i had wanted to use it to heat the tent while i was asleep so i guess that is a big NO NO thanks for the link with all the info too

I was wondering is it safe to use coal in a tent stove? I am concerned that the carbon monoxide will build up quicker when using coals, i think i read that some where but does anyone know? (hope i posted this in the right place)

thanks i'll let you know for definite as soon as i can :D

Hi just want to say i am interested in coming (plus one)

i am 25 :)

Last meet i went to i was the only girl i didn't notice lol :D cos i really didn't think much of it they were a cracking bunch, i had tons of fun and learnt loads. I haven't gone on a course yet but if i did and i was the only gal i doubt it would bother me.

Is everyone coming who came before? i hope so! It was fun fun fun! I wonder if I'll be the only other one with a huge bottom tent again! Em

Lol i see you got a pic with the tipi's one was mine (err the sagging one (white) lol it was our 1st time putting it up) they all look so close together in your pic made me chuckle :D

Thanks for the advice luckly for me there was a mix up with my order and i got offered a Safir 7 cp (formerly Varrie) with a discount YAY! i jumped at the offer and i got a discount on the floor (which i decided to go with as i will be careful not to leave food around as to not attract ants) I...
