Hi from Sheerness in Kent

[simonc]

Hello All
I am a new member just joined, would really like to hear from any one in my area who would'nt mind taling me under their wing so to speak as I am completely new to bushcraft but I am dead keen on having a go as it has interested me for some time.

If there is any of you guys out there close to my locality who would not mind helping out a middle aged slightly over weight guy who will rough it with the best of them, please let me know. Oh please bear with me as I am totally new to forums, CHEERS....

Hello and welcome to the virtual campfire

I surfed into the forum years ago, it was the first one I had ever joined.....you get the hang of it pretty quickly, especially if you join in the conversations at all

cheers,
Toddy

Thanks Toddy
At the moment I'm working around this with a white stick and guide dog (and he's blind)
cheers,
SimonC

Hello simonc,
Welcome to the forum,Have you got much woodland on the island ?
Have you heard off the Bushcraft magazine that are based in egerton near ashford.
They do day courses,and they have a great mayday meet.

Hi simonc and welcome. Think you will find a few from Kent on here. I'm only down the road from you in sittingbourne.
Don't get out much due to other commitments, but maybe we will bump into each other.

Hello ocean1975
Thanks for the tip about Bushcraft Magazine I will have a look at that.
You asked if we had any woods on the island, no such luck there its all marshes and farm land.
You're not to far from here maybe we could meet up somewhere sometime for a chat, or even a day in the woods somewhere (not on sheppey)
Cheers...

Hi birchwood
Does that mean that you are only a fine weather bushcrafter? HAHAHA!!!

Hi realearner
Sounds like you must be married and she won't let you out HAHA!!
It really would be nice to bump into someone like yourself who lives pretty much on my doorstep.
Maybe we could meet up sometime for a chat.
