Yes, too long Steve. Gutted to have missed the Moot but I was away on holiday.

 

[treadlightly]

You WILL make it!

I will - and we can swap Orkney tales!

 

[treadlightly]

Been a while, it'll be good to catch up

yes, indeed.

 

[decorum]

Pity ~ but it's good that you're away and working. The catch up will have to wait

 

[decorum]

yes, indeed.

Bushcraft Show last year iirc ... might have changed a bit since then!

 

[Mesquite]

... might have changed a bit since then!

Just slightly but the jokes haven't...

 

[decorum]

Just slightly but the jokes haven't...

Aye, true enough ... can't have everything though!

So I hear!

 

[Mesquite]

Ok... I bought 5 bags of logs this morning for the communal fire for £35.

What we can do is split the cost between everyone who's present on the Saturday night UNLESS you bring a large bag of logs as your contribution

A quick glance at the list and it's looking like 9 definites for the Saturday so the cost ought to be between £3 to £4 depending on exactly how many do turn up and if anyone brings their own logs

Oh, and please.... none of those bags of logs from the local garage, they're usually virtually unseasoned and the devils own job to burn

 

[Twodogs]

works for me

 

[MartinK9]

works for me

And me.

Cheers Steve.

Couple of edits to post #01 ...

There's been some work done to the site's driveway (the bit from the entrance at Tanners Lane through to the Overspill Car Park (the bit where it widens out) ...

entrance road / track:

A good amount of time, effort, and money has gone towards improving the drive in. Please respect the 5 mph speed limit, it will help preserve the driveway.

And, following a couple of random conversations ...

• chopping (or cracking/snapping etc) wood at 'silly o'clock' is not acceptable. Please make sure that you prepare wood for the start of the next day well before dusk ~ and if you can't be sure, bring an alternative method of heating water/cooking. In the event that you injure yourself (cut, bash, squash) processing wood it is expected that you will have a first aid kit / supplies suitable to treat the wound.

The 'squash' bit relates to getting fleshy bits pinched and not 'Tom and Jerry'ing yourself with major bit of tree (for that we have 'post it' notes and 999 )
