How did you come to Bushcraft UK

[jungle_re]

Nice thread bump

Met a guy from BB (Dougster/Rich) to go shooting who lived local to me (well to let him have a play with my custom rifle more than anything) we got on he invited me along to a meet, met a group of really nice guys which i'm happy to now call friends. They were all members here so joined initally to say thanks for a great weekend.

I blame my belly

I'd just taken up HFT at the time and was on AirgunBBS. Saw the Ray Mears voyageur program one night. Asked on AirgunBBS if anyone could tell me the ingredients in his bannock (the one with the rum n flies ) and someone pointed me here.

.and then came BritishBlades... and then Magikelly started SOTP... my wallet's not been the same since

edit: oops! - looks like I've already posted in this thread once

I was browsing different bushcraft sites and linked to this site out of curiosity.
A very happy find indeed.

It was Eric Methvens fault! He made me do it! I just wanted to sit and watch the big lads playing, but he said I had to join, or he'd put worms in my wellies!


Okay, He told me about BCUK, back in April 2007 and said it was a really good site, full of interesting stuff as well as some really nice, interesting folk and it would be right up my "via" "street" or "strada" so I joined and he was right

Thanks Eric

I was into the survival scene in the early 80s, used to watch the podgy one on Tracks, i did a few survival courses in the forces,then the podgy one came back on the scene he had some good tv shows ,knows his stuff,met the man a few times,then i stumbled on this site and joined.

 

[JonathanD]

I can't remember.

A friend recommended QDanT's superb travelogues. In the process of finding them I found quite a bit of other stuff I found interesting.

 

[Samon]

Far far from it. Many members here are members there.

Ah ok, I just assumed it would be like one of those annoying american gun forums..everyone showing off their rediculous 'EDC' .. is there many active members? compared to here.

Thousands. It is a sister site to BcUK.

 

[ex member coconino]

BCUK kept turning up in search results and I eventually twigged that joining would save me the step of going via Google

 

[Bushcraftsman]

I just remember typing in bushcraft into google after watching ray mears "four seasons" episode! loved every second and from then on, i was hooked!

 

[Tengu]

I cant remember, it was many centuries ago.

This year will be my fifth bushmoot
