list to learn

Hey Leon,

It was such a shame you couldn't stay for longer today :( but I hope you enjoyed it :rolleyes:

I have to say that I have never encountered anyone who learns as quickly as you! One demonstration or explanation and you can do it :You_Rock_ I think that's why we managed to cover so much.

I shall leave you to tell everyone about it and post your pictures, but here are some of mine :D

Well that looks like a challenge well and truly passed!

Congratulations Leon and thank you Fenlander for passing on what was clearly first rate instructions. A rep poice apiece is in order there I think

Looking forward to hearing all about it from Leon!

Hmmm - looks like a normal 12cm Zebra to me Kevin ;)

I guess he must have passed the test then?

Nice one Fenlander. Could young Leon be the next Ray Mears?
I just got to thinking that by the time Leon is my age he'll have 14 years of Bushcrafting behind him - keep it up son.

Out of Interest Fenlander, where's the site, or is it a secret?

Dunno what you mean Leon :27: ;)

Glad you had a good time mate - really looking forward to seeing your piccs. Make sure you tell your dad how much fun you had and thank him for taking you (us parents are suckers for that). Phrases like "I learnt so much", "ir really makes me want to get a book on....." wrap fun up as education :D

Anyway - well done both!
