    Woodlore Pro is absolutely useless……

    I was sat next to him quietly practicing the technique you've outlined. He has his technique down to a fine art. To be honest he is too efficient. We kept running out of beer and had to forage for more. At the end of the day it all comes down to time in the field drinking by he fire.

    Coastal Flora ID- trying to learn some edibles

    Hi Janne, Agreed, it's worth learning Hemlock before touching anything in the umbels. I like YouTube to be honest. I find there are reputable sources out there, Paul Kirtley and Ray Mears are on there, I guess it's each to their own. Fraser in the video runs his own Coastal Foraging and...

    I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong but every time a make a signature it says it's too long. I tried making a signature that is 11 characters and I get a message saying that it's 11 characters too long.

    Coastal Flora ID- trying to learn some edibles

    Hello again, Thank's to Man of Tanith and Slowworm for your response. I had a sample of the silverweed root I brought back - I tried it raw as suggested in The Forager Handbook. It wasn't to my taste, I'll have to try it cooked at some point. Slowworm, yes, I think you're right. It looks...

    Fishing Estuaries

    Hi All, I live in mid-wales and I'm looking into fishing Estuaries using a hand line. I was out today doing just that but didn't get a bite.
