[TinkyPete]

Was a great day out and great to meet old faces and new

Spent too much again but had a great time too and it was all needed

I will let the stories come out in time, but Chris may have to explain his friday night antics to either the moderators or the police.

Made it there on Friday morning and had a great time wandering around, watched the latter stages of the deer gralloching, picked up a brilliant Austrian Army folding shovel for the jeep from Endicotts for seven quid (!), and a lovely wee spoon knife from Ben Orford. Had a good chat with Rob Evans and handled some of his knives, very impressed and will be putting an order in Rob once I am back in funds again at some stage !

Well worth a visit and glad I made the trip.

Cheers, Paul

Chris all I will say is that is has something to do with what you were wearing on friday night next to Dace's forge from what I was informed by persons who were there and also after your little whirl in the red dress coat I can believe them

A great couple of days!
Went with the wife and kids on fri, and have to say my daughter loved playing on the pole lathe, defiantly her highlight of the day - big thanks to Ben and Lois.
Got to sneek back Saturday on my own for the demos and some chilling time. Really nice to put faces to the names and posts on the forum and I couldn't have wished for a warmer welcome from everyone. Great bunch of guys, lady and little one.
I must say you did cut a fine figure in the period red woollen smock/dress Chris
Thanks to Angst and Dave Budd for the tips on leatherwork and sharpening, and to Rob for introducing me to a new shiney (look forward to using later this week).

Well the Endicott Gimp turned up in a flash of smoke late Friday night at Dave Budds all night Iron BAR ( Pull up n anvil Get Hot ... Get Hammered at Dave's Iron Bar)
adorned in his usual Army Skrim Mankini

he sat in his Throne for a short time then disappeared off into the night mumbling something about Hunting down a Brace of lesser spotted Snow shoes That was the only known appearance this year maybe more next year

I only got a photo in the few seconds he was still before going of on his hunt

We had a good weekend and put faces to names which is alway good, great to meet you gents.
Special thanks to Duncan for just being a good bloke and sorting me out with stuff !
I think there was less people there than previous years thoe, could have done with filling the barn with a few more tables.
Next year we will have more time to organize and should have a better looking stall!

Where did the time go? Wish I'd made more of an effort to locate more of you now.

Here's a fix for a coyote badge that's lost it's pin holder, not the best, made from one of the chips the bowmakers left, so I didn't know it was going to work out. (my excuse for how rough it is).

 

[robevs73]

We were camped next to each other all weekend!

I know. It sounds ridiculous. This trip for for the Mrs. so fitting her stuff in, getting the bits I was after, getting a couple of workshops in and running after the my youngest seemed to take up most of my time. Plus BCUK people don't necessarily stand out much from the rest of the clientele.
