Enjoyed a superb day out with with Hugo & Rockmonkey today, with lots of laughs, mickey taking and banter being enjoyed throughout the entire day.
Not many pics taken as we were having far too much bushcrafty fun in the autumnal sunshine im afraid.
The north side of the South Downs, glorious in the sunshine
Almost obligatory shadow shot it would seem at this time of year
Lovely autumn colours
Hugo on the way to the top
Still on the way to the top
Got to one of our favourite spots and practiced a few skills, carving and the like, made some bullroarers, which worked a treat, we also drank lots of tea and enjoyed some superb buttered currant buns that are supplied by Mrs Hugo ( Thanks Mrs Hugo).
At about 1pm we upped sticks and moved to another area we frequent where we are also allowed to have a small fire, so we did, we then settled down and did a bit more tea drinking and carved some spoon blanks out,
before finally heading out of the woods and back to the cars just before darkness fell.
