I've made a few posts since joining the site a couple of weeks ago, so it's probably time I came out of the shadows and introduced myself. My name's David, I'm twenty eight years old, and live near "ed", "cgait" and "wenie" in South Wales. Single with no kids - might think about children when (if) I finally grow up :) Blimey, that sounds like something from a lonely hearts advert :eek:

I heard about BCUK from tutors and participants on the recent bushcraft taster course held in nearby Cwmaman. My practical knowledge of bushcraft is sketchy to say the least, but it was non existent before Ed and Dean walked me through the basics. I've picked up loads of good info by looking through old posts on the forum - what a fantastic bank of knowledge. Pretty much every question I can think of asking has already been answered somewhere on the site. That's something BCUK members should be proud of.

If you're out and about on the Welsh hills and see a fella staring at the flora and fauna with a puzzled expression on his face, and a well thumbed copy of Food For Free sticking out of his pocket, please say hello, because it's probably me :)

P.S. I own several elderly Land Rovers, a serious mountain bike, a pair of leaky Goretex boots and a fair selection of khaki clothes, so I should fit in OK on the site :)

Yes, Cwmaman's a tiny village just outside Aberdare. Just don't insult the locals by calling it a suburb of Aberdare. :)

Cwmaman Institute does quite a lot of bushcrafty stuff. Give them a bell on 01685 887100 to see if they have anything to suit.
