And there was I thinking that Bushcraft was about being minimilist and living at one with the countryside...

Y'know I thought so too.....until I started looking around me :eek:
HWMBLT reckons I've got a fetish for boxes, truthfully it's just 'cos they're great places to stash all the stuff I collect :D
The usual girlie things, shoes, hairpins, etc., but I've got over 200 herbs dried/ tinctured/syruped/oiled and neatly stored. About 50 different bags of dyestuffs, several thousand reels of thread, at present about 300 m of cloth, and then there's the *useful* things like knives (35) boots (14prs) tents (6) jackets (?) and firesteels (?)
and I'm *not* a kit junkie......there's just always something else that looks *interesting* :cool:

I still think LS's quote (tongue in cheek or not) is right though. We really ought to make more for ourselves.

Cheers,
Toddy
Edit: Forgot the books, but they aren't 'collected', they just breed :p

Sorry, but it was funny; though you're probably suffering miserably just now. Maybe take some anti-histamine? Hope they settle down quickly.

But I have one for all occasions - jet black, woodland camo and shocking pink for Evening, Daytime and at the beach... :eek:

Toddy, I have just mailed a copy of this to my better half, just to reassure her I could have a worse problem with kit and hoarding than she thinks I have already :D
