As Gt said no real age restrictions as long as supervised with an adult, great to get kids out and away from the xbox's,

I'm afraid I also 2nd the over 18, nothing personal, but we can't be held responsible etc etc...
because we are technically random members of the public there is no reccord of anyone in the group, so we can't guarantee any child safety.
also some of us work in the area so we know how much paperwork would be involved which you don't whant to know about.

feel free to come along with an adult, but not on your own, sorry mate.

Well...what can I say...
There I was At the training expecting to see at least 4 other Bushcrafty types...no other Bugger turned up!
Pretty disappointed, for Ian who set it up for originally 10 people!
So, I had a nice day playing with Ice breaking games, new Activities, and even a bit climbing Crate stacking... it wasn't all hard Work!
The wind didn't stop anything, we did everything as planned, discussed and tried out several activities.
We finished the day cooking salmon(£25 worth) and vegetables in foil on an open fire...We had a lovely day(if a little cold).

I did my Friction fire demo's in the dark, a bit tricky as half of it was by torchlight, every few minutes huge clouds of red embers flew at me from the Huge fire we were cooking on!

Some of you guy's have missed out on a great opportunity!

Nice salmon ;)

Hi Kev, it's this one you mentioned a while back.
I hope you've all seen this thread
http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=64265

Bushcraft Instructors wanted I have 160 well behaved cadets wanting two days of team building in Norfolk, England in June. I was thinking of doing 4 - 6 hours of survival skills but don't have enough staff with the skills. Anyone interested in some paid work? Please contact me direct by email with your ideas for what training you could deliver for a group of 15. ian@angliaadventures.co.uk

Whittler Kev.

I can't imagine he'll be doing another one due to the 10% turn out.
(If you're reading this for the first time, sorry but it's already happened)

Hi One and all

Look forward to seeing you lot on Saturday, just to remind 9 15 at Thickthorne Park n ride, those with cars we have 3 to take over to the farm.

I like to be away by 9 30 to make the most of the day, don't know what the weather is going to be like, but your skin is water proof.

It will be nice to see some new faces and olds ones see what santa brought.

Read a few back threads for directions, see you Saturday
