New american from BB

[bschiltz]

Hello all, yet another one from British Blades. I actually found BB looking for knots and cord work, but was soon adictied to knives. I'm in Boy Scouts, so I have a fair rooting in basic outdoor skills, but would like to learn a lot more (I'm only 17 so I've got a lot of time to learn!). I'm buying a hammock and netting with MagiKelly which will be my first bit of real outdoors kit, but hope to expand my collection a lot!

Welcome, Ben.
Hope you find a comfortable spot by the fire. Luckily round here the smoke doesn't ever go in your face...

Hi Ben come in and fill ya boots

I just found out that "Fill your boots" is an old navy saying meaning "Come and have a drink on us"

Rather than "Get so excited that your boots fill up with whatever happens to be running down your trouser leg"

Thought it might be worth clarifying, just in case anyone else makes the same mistake as me... :tongue-ti
