I'm seeing this discussed quite a bit due to various stories in the news regarding XL bullys. People suggesting no point banning dogs, no bad dogs just bad owners, better to make owners have licences etc etc Whats everyones thoughts on the matter? I'd agree that bad owners create bad dogs, but...

I was reading dome comments about the passing of Robson Valley on his families tribute page and someone mentioned BCUK, it got me thinking about how this forum attracts people from all over and not just the UK, how did any of you oversea folk find the forum? Is there sister forums? I'm sure...

I suspect not, given most of you lot are in are in that s-1 camp, where s is the number of knives/rucksacks/items etc owned that would result in your partner separating from you... But I often find myself failing to commit to a purchase - I wouldn't mess someone about by contacting them, more...

Has anyone gone through this process? I contacted them via email, got given a reference number and was told to send pics etc, then I've been ghosted... literally no reply after now multiple emails. :(

At risk of being the smelly one.. I'm wondering how often you guys wash things like your trousers etc? I only ask because with great excitement I got a nice block of wax with which to rewax my vidda pros, haven't done it in over a year and much like the excitement when I had a hair brained idea...

With all this awful weather, I'm thinking it's about time I buy an actual waterproof jacket instead of relying on the pack-a-mac non waterproof waterproof that I've had for years.. I know there are plenty options around - Go outdoors for example has many, but I can be a clumsy oaf and tore my...

Hey all, Not really sure where to post this as nothing is or has happened yet, but I figured it'd be a place to mull over ideas and maybe hear from yourselves about experiences or aspirations. So.... I want to climb a mountain... No not Everest, nor the other "you'll be lucky to survive" ones...

What a disaster, Christmas is ruined... Had to open one of those horrible plastic sealed things that new scissors come safely packaged in...(the ones you need scissors to open!!)...Went to the drawer to pull out my trusty Schrader SCHF25 and shock horror, the blade has self destructed... its...

So, wife and I are looking to head to Vietnam and/or South East Asia for a bit of an adventure... Thinking of doing a bit of motorbiking (semi-auto biking), backpacking, camping, snorkelling, camping... Just wondering if anyone has done anything similar?

Are these all pretty standard? I want to get a waterproof note book so that I can scribble down a few reminders and will be able to use them outdoors without paper melting away. I don't get out too much for practicing things, and when I'm out, more often than not there is no phone signal, so...

Good afternoon all. When I get time, Dartmoor is one of my favourite places to be, I love small walks, hikes and indeed camp upon it. I often obey the byelaws - maybe occasionally bent them a smidge (van camped..maybe..I'll deny it!), but one thing I never do on the moors is fires - its a gas...

I'm currently trying to find the reserve battery for my body and having a few moments of rest I thought I'd throw out a random question... I don't eat: Cheese Spaghetti (the actual spaghetti - bolognese is divine) Butter There's other stuff I'm not keen on, but those are the things that make...

Since one of the discussions recently I mentioned beef jerky and its been stuck in my mind ever since...so the other day I bought a joint of beef from lidl, wasn't the leanest joint, but it was pretty good I'd say, then yesterday set about cutting it and marinating. I cut lots of bits wafer...

Can anyone recommend where to get ferro rods? Versions of? I've seen/read that light my fire rods are well received, would these be the best options in peoples opinions? I know there are cheaper options, but I don't want to end up with something that'd I'd find easier to clonk someone with and...

Well folks, I have the dreaded rona... I'm sure I'm done for.. Wife and I work very long hours so are often feeling tired, but recently I've felt really fatigued... then I awoke to a funny feeling in my throat and a strange hoarse cough... went through the day and actually started to feel a bit...

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I have one of those "I know what to do" sort of scenarios in my head, but when my wife asked, I realised I actually didn't know exactly.... So, you're supposed to find running water number 1... then to make sure there is no dead t-rex lying in...

Following from a recent thread about a TV show which none of us had any interest in doing...(apart from me if I'd get paid £10 mil) Are there any of the sort of survival (or otherwise) TV shows that would be tempting for any of you lot to go on? If you want to add caveats then thats fine...

Anyone here like their cocktails? Am I alone in wondering what all the fuss is about? I personally can't really stand them.... I've had a few that I've enjoyed, but realistically they were very fruity, or very coke-y I.e. sugar sugar sugar... Someone was telling me about whisky sours the other...

Figure this is more of a brain based question rather than bushcraft so stuck it here.... So, it was about 6:45pm today, I was juggling with the idea of going out for a camp tonight.. time was running out to get kit organised, food etc, I checked the weather and its raining from a little after...

Hey all, I've got a gas stove like this one...
