BushMoot 2017 - July 31st - August 12th
- Thread starter Tony
- Start date
Makes me feel less bad about our room full of outdoodsy gear and stacks of backpacks. We certainly don't have more than 6 or so tarps/bashas. Recently got a Dutch oven for when cooking over the firepit in the garden slash "could be useful at the bushmoot". Hope you all feel appropriately bad for being enablers ;D
Any idea of dates n times of workshops that will be running, please ?
I'm looking at the castaway survival, but want to get an idea if anythings going to get cramped, schedule wise

It's not always as easy as planning this far ahead Reddave. A lot depends upon who (tutor-wise) turns up when and what the majority want to do - we certainly try to pack as much in as we can and the "Workshops" page of www.Bushmoot.com has a idea of how much that entails. If there is something that you are desperate to do, mention it to the Boss (well, actually Shelly
) when you arrive and I'm sure we'll do what we can to keep you busy.There is of course the idea that no-one gets to do everything which ensures the ticket sales for next year!

Fair point about tutors. It has, unfortunately, become second nature to look ahead for potential 'challenges' at work. This sometimes spill into the real world. Sorry.
Don't point me to the workshops, I wanna do 'em all. OK, not kids craft.
Hello everybody,
This year I will have to travel via rail with just me n my rucksack etc. Does anybody know the distance approx from Bridgend station to camp and is anyone willing to pick me up if they can big ask but times have never been harder I am due into Bridgend approx 11.00 am.
Many thanks,

It's about 4 miles from the station to the campsite.
As for lift, sorry but I doubt I'd have room in my car

It looks like I can make this year in full - or at least far more than the 2 days I was able to make last year.... who's for a story or two?

That is great news John.
Are there Exhibitors with a need for one or more part-time helper on their stall? Might be worth Tengue making some enquires with a view to limiting her expenditure.
Just a thought

There aren't usually any exhibitors that attend the moot apart from Dave Budd and his stall/workshop is a one man band type.
Sorry, I thought it had trade stalls rather like any Game Fair but with an area to chill and do bushcrafty things for the Weekend. Clearly I was wrong!

No thats Wilderness Gathering. Bushmoot is more about coming together to meet and share skills and experience. Different vibe.

there seems to be a bus from Bridgend most ot the way. I haven't committed yet. Just perusing the forum before deciding
Am now doubting my own words. There is a bus to Ewenny, which shaves a bit of the walk off. I plan to buy an OS map to see if a more direct route can be taken from there without coming in through the back door as it were.
