Bushcrafter, i think it runs in my veins.
I cant stop thinking about it, living in the wild and all that.

hehehe  :D
Nice one Mouldsy, a good find there.

Especially liked the bit "crawl into your cocoon and rue the day you decided to get into bushcraft"

That was me last January, woodburn forest:
- too wet to find firewood
- too dark to cut wood
- so cold that your bones hurt
- so flipping windy that your shelter kept blowing away
- and worst of all.... you're out of teabags and biscuits fruit

...I love bushcraft  ;D

Not in the near future, I am hopeing to get on the Axe workshop with Wood smoke this year but I will have to see how the money is.
Gary, Phil, hopefully Paul and I are going to be planning a canoe trip to the Yukon for two years time.
Have you any course's planned your-self.
