Confirmed Sam can make it now the in-laws have rebooked their holiday for a week or two later.

Here's hoping the Lewis's are going as he's desperate to catch up with the boys (And Felix).

Good news, Sams summer is going to be cram packed now!!
Tickets now booked, can't wait!
Be good to see you again Steve goodjob
Wish I could come, but it's far too expensive
It's a shame you can't make it. If you know of a different venue that's as good and cheaper i'd be interested in hearing about it.

Hello. I’ve not been to the moot for many, many years. Recently got back into bushcraft and wildlife tracking and the like.
Is it the same as before with you being able to find a nice spot and set up whatever suits hammock/tarp etc. Bring some projects and chill in the woods.

Given that the Bushmoot is over 2 week, what would be the best say 4 days / 3 nights to attend? Does it naturally split into a kids first week and an adults second week or in any other format?

Normally the opposite - quiet first week, busier second. I have been for the first 4 days or so in the past; I don't do busy :)

Usually it's the first 4 days and the last 3 days are the quiet ones because we have a 'core' period in the middle, but this year is a bit different as we're not running it to the usually format because we don't know what the conditions for socialising etc is going to be, so it's straight camping through the whole event.

We will be doing what we can though so it might well turn out that we have a few days of workshops etc but I can't promote that in case it doesn't happen.

In answer to your question there's no definable split on adults and kids and when they come, it's a family friendly event so the whole lot if fair game.

Hey Mate, that's a good question.

There will be a combination of supplied and buy, there is no bringing firewood to site, that's strictly a no no now. All wood on site has to be bought off the estate, so I'll sort out prices for this year, over the last few year people have shared ton bags. We'll get some for the main fire and any workshops that we do. I'll figure out the rest of it and make it known.

Can't remember what we had last time Tony but probably half a bag required. Preferably drier than that stuff in the winter ;)

Hey, I still burnt it! But it did require days of drying and splitting.
