hi all am phil and am 30 years young.
been intrested in bushcraft for some time now and would like to get into it a lot more. would like to go out with a few ppl that know what they are doing. i don't have much stuff yet as i don't really know what i need. got a knife an axe that needs to be fix as it is held on by a bent over nail. and a few other bits and bobs.

if you fancy a day trip out and help me out it would be much appreciated.

thanx phil

Hello Phil and welcome to the forum.

There's a few folks around your neck of the woods, but keep an eye on the Scottish Meet up threads too.
I'd say don't get swamped with the need to buy kit; enough to get by is a good way to start and it lets you choose the bits that really suit you and what you like to do.

cheers,
Toddy

Hi Phil, I'm new too, not so young, relatively ancient, but still love being outdoors and camping . It's a good place to hang out and I'm looking fwd to going to some moots in the spring. Love Scotland but live a long way away from it. Will post you when I'm next up there.
