Besides plan and tree ID which im poor at i like to leave a bit of cordage material in the car for stationary traffic and have a play......

Also stops you jumping out the car and killin that sales rep who just cut you up

as it has been a bit grim today my son and i sat on the back door step and made a brew using a pepsi can meths burner we had made (first one and was well surprised with it)

I'm the same with the tree ID thing. I could list off every single tree in a ten mile radius My favourite is the hawthorn with pink flowers. Not long to wait for it now!

Also when in work, I make lists of equipment to bring when I head out overnight.

I'd like to try the cordage one tho. Maybe get a pocket book and learn all my knots off.

I chop some logs and kindling for the stove every day, and then my son likes to practice his firelighting skills in the evening when we light it.
At lunchtlime I have a "knife moment" and like to peel my apple or orange in one continuous spiral of peeling. Obsessive Compulsive behaviour I know
cheers,
Doug.

I always carry a shoe lace in my coat pocket. Bushcrafty. Honest. I might need it for cordage any time.


BCUK does count. So!
