i need to harvest some elder for my hand drill set at some point got two in the back garden.

 

[sasquatch]

I need some more elder as well as clematis. I'll bring my bag of tricks as well then and between Pete, Karl, Prep and myself we should be good to burn a few villages to the ground with ample supplies. No such thing as too damp for the bow drill Mark if you have enough energy. The hand drill is a different story though!

I dont mind doing a chat on planning a budget Scandinavia trip if anyones interested ? Aims , Flights , Trains ,Kit the lot

yes Chad was thinking the same here too! and of course for the benefit of our new guys, airweapons and catty's etc are allowed, in fact we should have a contest with some sort of bushy prize?

exactly that Martin, a good mixed turnout may as well take advantage of whats on the table, so any new or not so regular meeters, what do YOU want to do?

I've got some targets, will try to remember to bring them Does anyone have experience of making and using slings?

And I definately want to be around for your talk, Cliff... the idea of having a 1 way ticket, a jolly and returning with a g-wagon/ unimog filled with saleable salvaged treasures is MOST appealing

Ooooh yes! I'd love to watch that over your shoulder! I presume the theory is good for most medium to large size fish?

It's a beautiful dish to see prepped, cooked and even better to eat

Something I,ve been looking to learn for ages!

 

[woodspirits]

Jason, to make this right how about we have a whip 'round for the goods, for those who want to partake?

The fish usually costs me £20.00 ish, so a couple of quid each will easily cover it. It's not a biggie I enjoy cooking it. I will do some potatoes and bread if I can. I may need to borrow a big Dutch oven for the potatoes / bread

I'm pleased it seems to go down well

 

[woodspirits]

in my best dale winton voice... do i take your answer to mean you intend to offer a meal of fishes and loaves? for all who chip in? a big undertaking Jason given the numbers.

 

[TurboGirl]

So are you gonna do one and we take dibs on a bit if our names are down? Or we could bring bread to make it easier on you, Jase.

I don't want to jump the gun or anything, but....... it's just like when trev checked the lasagnas in the fridge the other night.... and 'They're Off!!!!!'

A bit over eager there, I fear!!! I've removed the rejigged list so it doesn't cause confusion
