Hi everyone!
Just a quick hello.
My first time on the forum after reading it for some weeks, great site! Actually my first time on any forum, not very IT/computer friendly so don't know if this will make it to the forum or crash the internet. I'm by no way an expert in Bushcraft but have had an interest in Bushcraft/survival skills since seeing Firtst Blood when I was 15, but not a Rambo fan.....honest!
Got some practical experience in the outdoors, 6 years infantry, posted to Hong Kong for 2 years and spent some time in Brunei, Malaysian jungles. Used to hike and wild camp a lot in the Brecon Beacons (only live 45 mins away) until two kids came along, so don't get out as much as I'd like these days.
Quite fortunate though to have 101 acres of a mid Wales farm to play on incuding some good tree cover and about 2ks of the upper Towy river to fish for Salmon and Sea Trout (called Sewin in Wales), perks of marrying a famer's daughter! and a bit of air rifle shooting, Bunnies, squirrels and Woodies.
Me and my mate spend weekends throughout the year there under tarps and chop firewood for my mother-in-law as a sort of thank you.
Anyway, thanks for an informative forum and looking forward to engaging and participating further in the future.
