On the contrary, I don't mind seeing Otters or any other predator in the river as that is a good indication that the river is healthy, for all species who inhabit it. After all, there won't predators unless there is prey. What I wrote could have been worded better so I'll try again. Fish...

I haven't been here for a while but after reading some of the posts in this thread I felt compelled to post. Can those of you taking fish please read the following page about what fish you are legally allowed to take...

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

Thanks for the info everyone. I never knew any of this. I thought that ticks were only something that affected dogs and wild animals and I never knew that they carried disease, I thought they were like head lice but for animals. I'm gonna get a tick remover and get into the routine of...

It was marketed as a combined windshield and pot support. As a windshield it is ok, but as a pot support it is very flimsy and none of the sides are equal so it was very hard to get the mug balanced well. It is badly built and doesn't fold away on itself as it should. The idea of having the...

Yeah, now that the paint is off it doesn't smell or smoke with use, so I'm happy using it. Still wrap it in a freezer bag though along with the Trangia to make sure the mug stays clean.

I know what you mean about the dog. If it wasn't for us getting a puppy I wouldn't out walking and enjoying the countryside. He's been great fun to have around.

Thank you.

A neoprene mp3 player case I got from the pound shop, I use it for my mobile. I keep meaning to replace it with something better as it can be a little annoying unzipping it all the time, but it has served its purpose and kept my phone in good order for almost a year. Also a clipper lighter...

Thought I'd share with you my pot stand I use with my Trangia, only cost £2. It's a metal pen pot from Staples. Link Here it is in the flesh. Burner and spork for size reference. Trangia fits inside perfectly with just a few mills spare. Mug on top. Pot stand, burner...

Hey everyone, I'm James. Not much to say about myself with regards to bushcraft as I have only just started looking into it, though I must admit that I do enjoy setting twigs on fire and making a cup tea. I started going out into the countryside after getting a Labrador puppy about a year...
