Hi all...I'm Grant, paulm's mate. It's good to be here :) Paul and I met on a bushcraft course at Badgells Wood and via hammockforum.co.uk
I'm a newbie to bushcraft but I've been camping, hiking, backpacking most of my life. I've just discovered hammocks as opposed to tents and the bushcraft interest is now growing.
Looking forward to meeting you all in Alton. Cheers!

Chaps. would like to offer we use my course woods in Marlborough instead. There are some pros and cons to this....

Parachute, tarped composting loo, parking is closer so easier to get heavy duty kit and water in, more clear ground to avoid brambles for bivis, more hammock spots, good selection of trees to prune for carving, loads of firewood.

Cons...not in Hampshire (although this makes it closure for some) and I'd also need to charge £20 each instead of £10.

I'll go with the majority vote. Hampshire or Wiltshire?

Thanks
Andy

Marlborough is better for me so gets my vote, but I will go to Lords if the majority want it.

I think we're very lucky to have the choice, thanks Andy, and happy to go with either :)

Cheers, Paul

Met John G at a Dartmoor meet earlier this week, he was looking forwards to this meet and just needing to get out of the wilderness to an internet signal to join up here and confirm !

Cheers, Paul
