cracking write up and pictures Angst, as has been mentioned already but deserves saying again :)

I'm glad you had fun at the Man Creche, I certainly did! Blooming knackered afterwards though and only just with it enough now to start going through emails and forums etc. I'll post up another thread today thanking folks and stuff too, aswell as a thread about that knife :soapbox:

Chris is a proper wife sometimes, he was shouting at be from across the field to go to the loo at one stage (to be fair it had taken me abotu 10 minutes to walk 50 yards!). Always more fun when he helps me out, saves me talking compete cobblers the whole time :D

did you (or anybody) get a photo of Johnny's new bracelet?


edit: I've just read through this thread again (read it yesterday, but the old brain was not engaged anymore). Sonni, I'm really happy to have kept you and the others entertained and your write up is really very touching! You git, your setimentalism is rubbing off!

That is such a BRILLIANT write-up Angst. I'm so jealous I wasn't able to make it. Great to put some faces to names I have known for quite a while.

...and your picture of Dave's Hammer and Anvil is 'Bushcraft Art' - honest, hard work putting soul into the metal.

:You_Rock_

Thanks for your efforts.

your house!
Dropped in on the Saturday morning, was feeling pretty ill so only stayed a couple of hours, but it was great fun, axe throwing :) . Met a couple mates and saw some fantastic kit and crafts, had a great chat to Mr Orford and ordered a custom crook knife :D . If time allows will definitely be going next year,
