bcuk Jungle Skills course (Borneo) 22nd - 29th September 2012

[JIM-BEAM]

Tony,
Sorry for being "out of term..." When is the term. I am new to this forum, but I would be interested to know when is the best time for people to go on similar expeditions. Our group of guys planning something similar in different part of the world and so far we are very flexible on time. If there is special GOOD time to travel - we may adjust our trip and then may invite more bushcrafters...

Ooooooooh just seen this, If I could scrape the cash together I'd definitely be up for this!

EDIT: Just realised it's in fresher's week so I'll have to be helping out with selection....... absolutely gutted

EDIT EDIT: Wonder if I could get out of that.....!

[tedw]

so, how many people have actually signed up so far?

 

[Becky]

Hi tedw
In answer to your question, there has been a lot of interest shown in this expedition but no one has committed to date. The Expedition go/no go date is 15th June 2012

Regards
Becky

 

[tedw]

Thanks Becky, I'm hoping to go but have a couple of other options that I don't want to lose if I commit to this and then it does not go ahead. Hmmm!

 

[tedw]

OK, I've taken the plunge, signed up and paid my deposit. Who else is up for it?

I did this year's Arctic course with Woody and BE and I reckon you won't find a better value chance anywhere to learn bushcraft skills from a real hands-on expert. Just look at the threads generated by the Arctic course to see what a great experience we all had there. Can't wait now , so come on guys!

For those interested, flights look to work out somewhere around the £800 mark, but I need to research that some more.

 

[johnboy]

I'm interested but I'm not sure of the pricing if you're not based in the UK??

How were you going to fly LHR to KL then hop over to Brunei??

 

[tedw]

That was for a direct flight LHR to BSB - £757. I may be able to get cheaper by breaking up the journey - we shall see.

You must be able tp get flights from NZ cheaper than that!

 

[johnboy]

I'm not sure on the costs of flights but ill take a look.
