    How to pick the right machete?

    Personally I'd steer clear of the fiskars just due to the quality of the steel... They're a smashing tool for the money but lifetime they're most certainly not! Find an old one from ebay and spend some time putting a decent edge on it then keep it covered... Don't buy the biggest one there is...

    BG soon to be richest man in UK

    I'll second that vote ... bloke seems like he's up for a good laugh and bugger me if he can make cash whilst doing it why not! As regards the tat... At least it'll be hard to loose if you put it down in the undergrowth and most of us will need an improvised hammer at some point or another.

    Long may the mild Autumn continue

    It's smashing as long as you're not trying to camp with an unprepared family ... they didn't see the cold night coming and I ended up with the dog whilst the kids ended up cuddled with mom... A price you pay for clean fresh air and a warm fire with good friends I guess :)
