:You_Rock_ Hi, I've been on this site a while now, I have had an intrest in bushcraft for as long as i can remember. I think it all started when i used to go walking with my father, around the local area ( The Cynon valley.) we used to walk for hours, just walking and looking around us,he used to work on local farms many years ago, before all the housing estates where built, so he had a basic know how of buhcraft, this all help make these walks some of my happiest memories. Now I have two young children i think its a good way for them to learn more about life, nature, and the effect we have on everything around us including other people. I wa just interested in other views on why people do the bushcaft thing? and is there anyone in my area who would like to chat about bushcraft? thanks for looking, Geraint
