40 is old:lmao::lmao::lmao:

I'm living proof that 60 (or near) is the new FORTY :)

Your still a nipper.

Book a flight a couple of months (way cheaper) in advance

Then a room or studio

And go and do something different in a different country, go get a toy boy/girl (whatever takes your fancy) out in sunny Spain, go to Prague, you can go and shoot pistols and even AK47 machine guns; go to Budapest and have the best Turkish bath you can imagine in the most beautiful Turkish baths you can imagine. Do something that is different from bushcraft, there is far more to life.

Chop in the tired, pactical older model for a newer racier one with sleek lines is the traditional approach. The current one might have been okay once, but everything is starting to sag and creak, some parts don't work properly anymore and there is occasionally a weid smell. It take forever to get it going - especially in the morning. Why not have the latest, barely legal one where everything is taught and tight, its just humming and tense and bursting with raciness.

If you don't like that idea, get a new car.

I guess strippers and copious ammounts of booze aren't to your liking?

a blacksmith day wopuld be great, forge your own knife and stuff like that!

<sighs> bear in mind I have little money and my family are somewhat tightfisted.

They are also convinced I am 17, for some reason. I think its the college.

Climb your nearest hill (preferably mountain) , build and light a flaming beacon on top and proclaim loudly to the 4 winds and the people and lands around you that you have earned your right to enter your hallowed days :)

Oh, and watch out for rangers, police, and anyone wearing a white coat!

Get shot out of a cannon, not the stunt kind but a massive old nepolieon era one while dressed in a tutu, parra boots and a ww1 german spike helmet. :p

In all seriousness, how about a meal with the family then a nice evening out.

Well, I have thought of `something` but it would involve me taking time off of college, which is Not Done.

Abominble Scouse monster, Im afraid it would have to be mons meg to fit my wide shoulders.

Barethrills, a great idea. I am in N Wilts, have you an idea for a venue???
