Ooh, I like this. I guess it's the same as last year... but maybe this time I'll do it.

Camp out at least 1 night every month - and if it snows, then too

new ones for 2011, really start work on managing the woods I play in.
clear some pines and introduce some hazel and willow
make spoons and egg cups for the English National Sheepdog trials
Crack making woodspirits
learn to use my lathe

Oh, and finally master the bow drill (and other firelighting methods)

bushy - become comfortable with my plant ID
- sleep out in the snow (hopefully get a chance to do this before this year's out)
- start canoeing again

non bushy - pass my motorbike test (been saying this for about 5 years now but i really do think that 2011's the year!)

cheers

your house!
Approch DE and see if they mind me trying to manage the little woodland across the field from me, as its full of rubbish and has a very over grown canopy(might do some stealth keeping)

teach a three year old to use a bow drill kit,

learn to make my own blades use the stock removal method,

join the RAF Police

get a winch for my truck, front and back,

Camp in scotland and north western europe!

You can be camp anywhere you like these days.

But only in Scotland do real men wear Kilts.

2011 Goals?

That's a lot of goals in one year - I've only a couple of goals: tidy up and decorate...

Many and mostly personal! But what I'd really like is to put into practice as much as I can of all that you guys have opened my eyes to in the last couple of months ;)

Cheers

Sunny Wales!
Go to several organised meets...
I would love to see traditional blacksmithing, leatherwork, bowdrill, all that kinda stuff in one place you would have to travel the length and bredth of the country to see otherwise. Share a campfire with true craftsmen, you now.

Just get out more, learn more, enjoy....!

My aim is simple: learn more foraging skills!
Mind you, I've been saying this for the last few years.

Get bushcraft out to the lithuanian public. Now we have 4 members in the "club", maybe get this number to grow :D :D
Make fire by friction
Learn more leatherworking, woodworking and blacksmithing. Stick to one of those for future.

Non/part bushcraft - build a straw bale house.

Get over the heartbreak of my seperation from my wife, and the fact that I do not live in
the same house as her and our beautiful children.
Get used to city life ( Exeter ) again.
