Anyone going to the Outdoor Adventure Show?

[C_Claycomb]

I was just wondering if anybody was thinking of going to this?

I think that I will be wander around on Sunday. Sadly there aren't any bushcraft talks that day, but it is the only day that I can make. Not sure what there will be to see, I was put on to it by a guy from work who is going, I am just tagging along for the ride!

I'm not going but I would recommend going to see Alan Hinkes talk. I saw him about 4 years ago and he was very good, plus I would be interested to know how he's getting on with his challenge (To climb all 8000m peaks in the world) He must only have one or two left, if any.

We're going to be there as Bushcraft UK, small booth upstairs overlooking the main area. Part of the Trails 52 weekend activities. So is Jack and Stuart Woodland Organics and Kellam Knives.
I have the info to put up on the website but I have been waiting for them to send me the ticket offer so I can offer it to everyone on here. They is slow people.
I think that Jack is doing a couple of speaking slots.

See you there :-D

We're also doing the Outdoors show at the NEC in April, I will put up some more info on it soon, and hopefully the ticket offer.

That's good. I was thinking of heading up to the NEC for the climbing stuff as i had heard it was the better show, but if there's bushcraft stuff there it's an added bonus.

Alan has two more to go, I think he is planning to do them both this year. From what I read he had to cut short an attempt last year as he had a suspected case of SARS. Luckily it turned out not to be.

I would love to go but can't find the time :-(

OK The ticket offer is sorted and I will get it up on the site ASAP. The offer is buy one ticket get another free. So that's 2 for £12 call 0870 010 9085 and say you're from Bushcraft UK. Quote them MTL to get the special offer. This offer is open to anyone that visits the site.

For just the members we are hoping to get some free tickets to give away to you. We will let you know about this as soon as we get them in our hands (I don't want any disappointment ) and then you will be able to send a SAE and get them sent to you. I will keep you posted on this.

Cheers Guys and Girls
