Hey all, recently rediscovered my love of the outdoors after finding some of RM's dvds, I used to watch the entirety of an old BBC programme called "Tracks" just for his five minute segment of it. But yeah, the outdoor and all things bushcrafty bug is truly rekindled.
I've bought a few books and some very basic equipment (knife, saw, firesteel) and have been rediscovering my local woods with a newfound perspective on it all. This site is definately the best place on the web though for just the vast amount of knowledge you guys have poured into it! Not to mention the really friendly atmosphere :You_Rock_ (I've been dying to use that emoticon :p )
So yeah I feel like my head is crammed full of bushcraft bits and bobs and there are a million places where I just wanna jump in and try something so it should keep me busy for a while (aka the rest of my life!). I look forward to getting my hands dirty and also getting to know some of you guys.


Oh and the name is from my love of cheese. None of the fancy mouldy runny rubbish but just good firm favourites like Cheddar. Seriously don't get me started on it ;) :lmao:

Welcome Cheesemonster.

I remember a mad fan of cheese in the recent version of the Borrowers. A blood hound that lived on nothing else. Named Mr Smelly if I remember.

Good job we all sleep in the open!

See you around the forum!

Hello :) and welcome to the fourm, good to have you here.
Under-rated stuff is cheese; excellent protein, easily carried, multi recipe, and it tastes good too :cool:

Cheers,
Toddy
