I was wondering other what things people interested in bushcraft are into?

Somebody else mentioned martial arts, which although I like the films I have never studied myself.

My interests include:
  • Astronomy
    Computing
    Local & Famliy History
    Sci-Fi Films / DVD's / TV
 
Im into history - in fact I belong to a dark ages re-enactment group called Britannia.
 
I really enjoy gadgets, bring on the wilderness techno gear! It may not be very practical and they may sometimes be total overkill but I love ‘em. GPS, Palmtops, watches etc.
I also like books, music, motorbiking, and wild places!
 
I really like to travel, especially to wilderness areas. Here in HK there always seems like something new to see even though it is a bit crowded!

I'm looking forward to getting back to the UK, there is a few wilderness areas where I can still get lost so it still ahs a lot to offer.

Other than that I like Reading, languages, and trying new things.
 
Almost anything to do with wildlife or natural history. Combine that with travelling and I'm pretty much in heavan.
 
what sort of natural history and wildlife do you like BenR?
I would love to get involved but just have no time!!
 
Hey guys (my first post *blushes*)

I'm also interested in Martial arts and eastern religion/philosophy, computer stuff, and whenever I can get away from University: green woodwork, particularly turning on a pole lathe. Oh yer...and studying...hmmm :roll:

:D
 
Hehe :D

I haven't turned my hand to bodging yet, mostly because I don't tend to have the right dimension greenwood for seats, although I guess I could always weave them :)

Maybe I'll start with a stool....
 
Shooting - shotgun, rifle and air rifle. Target and game/pest control
Knife collecting.
Anything outdoors.
Land Rovers
Whisky - decent single malts.
 
Writing, reading (adventure, crime, fantasy/horror)

my daughter

my cats (though they're not that much interested in me)

wild plants, especially edible and medical ones.

History

Philosophy and religion - I especially enjoy baiting Jehovah's Witnesses

I'm a seasonal surfer, don't get on with the cold!
Love walking on dartmoor,
Playing with all the tactical male stuff :)
I used to spend every penny on photography, but thats taken a back seat of late.
