Hi folks,
I'm interested in finding some cramp balls to try my fire making skills on them as I haven't used them.
I went out for a walk with my daughter last evening on the hunt in our local country park, but couldn't find any at all.
I know you can find them on Ash, Elm, Oak & on deadwood, but we walked about for an hour and a bit and could spot none.
Does anyone know someplace in West Lothian or there abouts that we could go and find some?
We're not wanting anyone to send us any , just give us a hint where to look, we found lots of bracket fungus but no cramp ball ( I take it it should always look like a little burnt ball on the side ofthe tree?).
any help as always would be appreciated.
cheers
Andy
