    Wild camping ban for Loch Lomond islands

    I just saw the below story on the Beeb. I remember reading a post from one of the BCUK members who selflessly cleaned up a site he visited that had been left in a less than ideal state (though I don't remember where it was). Unfortunately the mindless actions of others less respectful of their...

    Slovenia & bushcraft hoiday ?

    No but I've driven through there a few times and thought it would be a great place to go. Lots of unspoiled woodland and dramatic scenery. Good luck if you do it and make sure to let us know how you get on!

    kuala lumpur airport

    My vote would be split between Sheremetyevo in Moscow - old run down & nothing to do plus the joy of the local border guards, and Borispol in Kiev. As above only smaller. Enjoy getting back to Blighty!

    Fungus killing Plane trees

    I just came across this article on the Beeb. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-15305048 I don't recall seeing many plane trees outside of parks but it might be worth bearing in mind before tying a hammock or tarp up to one in future. It seems like a lot of our trees are at risk from one or...

    For a laff - Bushy Who Am I

    Well I suppose someone has to stick their neck in the noose. Lofty Wiseman. Who am I? I was born an American in 1731. I fought for the Brits against the French and Indians despite not being one of the lads. I died at the age of 63 but my words live on to this day.

    Ultimate piece of gear - possible Lockheed Blackbird sighting or help me ID it!!

    How about the Rockwell B1b? That's a swing wing plane with canards, longer than a standard jet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockwell_B-1_Lancer

    Water purification

    Does anyone on here have any experience of using the Lifesaver Bottle? http://www.lifesaversystems.com/unique.html I live close to a major river and it would be great to just grab water instead of carrying it with me. My concern is that the river is a major shipping channel and I don't fancy a...

    Stoopid jokes

    A cowboy rides into town and hitches his horse outside the saloon. He walks round to the back, lifts the horse's tail and kisses it's a** and then walks into the saloon. The storekeeper opposite scratches his head in puzzlement. Next day the same thing happens and this time the storekeeper has...
