Just got back from dovedale (by Ashbourne) ... spent the weekend down there with my son and tested my new honey *badger* stove ... which is awesome

Spent the night on the farmers fields about 1/2 mile from the main parking area to the park ... he allows fires and i've spent a fair few nights there before. (and only charges £5 a night)

Pitched right next to the brook and then climbed the hills earlier this morning ... great weekend ... took some photos too ill try and upload them later

Honey badger stove? Not just a normal honey stove?

The Beardown Man yesterday. A real feeling of remoteness out there.

Just got back from a little canoing trip from Devizes to Honey Street. It took a bit longer to paddle it than I intended because there were more pubs on the canal than I expected!

Camped over and awoke this morning wondering if I had indeed been abducted by Aliens during the night as my head was hurting a tad!

My local woods
I hammocked in the woods when our house was over run (beds, floor et al ) with visitting rellies who were down for my Mother in Laws funeral.
I dont like crowds!
I love my woods

Had a couple of hours chilling out in the woods yesterday with a pal, didn't get up to much apart from drinking brews and relaxing in the dappled sunshine.

Last weekend I took the wife up a couple of hills outside Skipton, she's called them Sharper and Sugarloaf since she was a kid but never been up. It turned out to be a really boggy affair, we got chased off by a mental cow and it chucked it down for the last couple of hours, not a bad day all in all.

A few miles from my house. Took Chaos and Mayhem for a wee look. Interesting site, and it has never been excavated so who knows what lies beneath.

The wife and I went to Kidszone with our granddaughter.

She had fun but I was most upset that it's right next to Ronnie Sunshines and they don't open on Sundays

Already told her I'm going there tomorrow

I seem to recollect them having some enameled fire bowls for sale when they had their open day but I wasn't able to get a close look so I want to go for looksee.

Just got back last night from Woodlore's camp craft course and i have to say it was the best time i have spent in the woods. Using axes every day and learning an awful lot as well, it was even better than the fundamental course. I will probably be posting a review over the next few days.
Great thread

Just back from a walk around Goyt valley, Shining Tor etc. My friends are trying to do the highest peak in every county in the UK, I tagged along.

Saturday night was spent in Edale, a feast of pork chops and scrumpy

And a night under my tarp, much to the amusement of my fellow tent campers, It chucked it down

I had a wander with my beautiful (and heavily pregnant ) wife to collect a couple of pounds of brambles for jam making this afternoon. The wander across the fields to the next village is always a pleasure.


Strange how there looks to be a bumper crop on the way around here. I was expecting it to be quite lame to be honest.

Down on the Gwent coast, a bit I haven't been to before. I will be back, as it was nice, and there was much to explore.

Well I suppose I should qualify my answer.

-Last place just for fun (of any outdoor type): Okaloosa Island fishing Pier yesterday.
-Last place for fun (of any type): To the movie last week to see The Expendables 2 with my grandson.
-Last place for an outdoor overnighter or longer: Again with my grandson and his dad on the Eglin Reservation about a month ago.
