Sophie keeps asking when we'll go back to Wales ;) She's missing her new friends.
Guess that means we have her permission to drive the 10 hours back down next summer :lmao:

Ness :)
 
Rhiannon keeps saying "Going Bushmoot now, Daddy?" So we have to do our own Little Bushmoots and eat in the garden loads!

She got well into it.
 
Miyagi : Not exactly tamishigiri... more like a rather ad-hoc demonstration of the skills, blades and techiniques used in BladeSports cutting competitions. I was using my own (own made) competition knife. It's a full flat ground 10" blade of 01 steel. The guys who were there can vouch for the fact that even after cutting cans vertically there wasn't the merest hint of edge damage :)
If you're interested in the idea of the sport of competitive cutting, search Youtube for 'BladeSports' to see the sort of thing we get up to, and take a look at www.bladesports.org for further details, rules and regulations etc. I am the only BladeSports Certification Instructor in the UK, (was the first one outside of the USA) and run Certification courses whenever and wherever I find feasible.
 
I learned a new technique for making net .... while i was teaching the net making course ..... Thanks Longstrider for the great idea of using your fingers instead of a guide .... I can knit nets alot faster now :-)
