I have never came across poplar before Dave. I tried the lime hand drill four hours back and that worked a treat as well. I'll bring some lime on the next meet.

Hi all,
I was originally in the Suffolk group. Bit dead there now and last time I really was on it a lot there was a couple of scraps and someone got banned. Needless to say I did my own thing afterwards and avoided the forum in general.
I recently moved to Norwich, just off Unthank road, but I can't drive. (which means no meets unless i have transport from someone)
I really really want to meet up with some chilled out people, sit in front of a fire have a brew up and sleep outside.
Just thought I should start here. Don't know what to do next.

☺ good evening young sir didn't think it would take long for a reply☺ anyway I'm a fast swimmer , and my sister's fine☺ just making the bed. Anyway How are you ? Looking forwards to seeing your bow set in action
All is good Carl. Hows yourself? I made some hand drill sets also for the next meet. I now have four Swiss Arrows so I don't have to keep walking backwards and forwards after every shot. lol. PS Was that you in the movie WaterWorld?
Hi, yes I was, I was the one shooting the 50cal on the barge covered in oil ☺ can't recall if it had two or four barrels. All ok this end thanks, haven't been out lately, miss the last two meeting due to work. But I have a new tarp I'm looking forward to using and some nice new tent pegs. Later mate
Hi,
I would like to get over to your next meet if possible.
I have just achieved hand drill fire. Elder/Clematis, Elder/Ivy. So the last few posts about hand drill kits has sparked my interest!
It would be great to see others who are doing it too.

Hi Leigh. Well done on hand drill success. I would like to swap some lime wood for a piece of Clematis if you have any going spare.
That would be a great swap. Can get loads of clematis but no lime about. I have an unused board which is good to use. DM me your address and I will post it out.

Hi all. I work 6am - 3pm Mon-Fri until Christmas eve, when Naked Wines will decide whether or not they want to keep me employed.
Next week I start looking for jobs again.
I need some cold weather camping advice too, if it's available.
Info:
Solo, backpack one night camp, in woods. I have a permission, so I'll have a fire.
I have little kit:
2 man entry level Tent (but sturdy, not a popup or festival throw away), blanket, inflating mat, foil emergency blanket, sleeping bag, warm clothes, good boots and socks and waterproofs.
hatchet, knives, saw,
ration packs, various fire lighting things, small set of pots and gas stove. (I also have a little back-up hexi burner)
torches, a couple of light sticks, basic first aid kit
one of those green army water bottles, camel bak (might use might not)
Nearest source of fresh water will be at least 300m away.
Thanks everyone also for your friendly welcome
