Stig, I think you need to challenge the last person who has given one but has not received one..I think it might be me although I'm not 100% :)

challenge completed on sunday morning.
"I challenge thee, Munkiboi182, to ignore thine tinder bundle with the rays of the holy sun"

used a fresnel lense to get a cramp ball burning during the 5 mins of sunshine we had before the heavens opened.

HHazeldean i'll keep it going by challenging you.

your mission, should you to accept it, is to create and demonstrate a brand (just for the record you don't have to brand a cows' rear end, you can burn it into a piece of scrap wood/leather etc)

this message will self destruct in 3,2,1.......

Greg my good man, I challenge you to make, out of natures boundless resources, an implement with which one could catch a fish and so eat for a day.
Do you accept this challenge?

Husky...I do accept your challenge, although in our country one isn't free to fish the rivers and lakes as in in your fair country so I will buy a fish and demonstrate using the little brook at the bottom of my garden :)

Actually catching a fish is optional but you seem not to be the one to make things easy for yourself. :)

Anyone who knows me knows I'm no master craftsman...but I'm pretty sure this will do its job fine..
