Newbie report
I went there on my own, not knowing what to expect
OH MY GOD!
I always say to my family, before I go play in the woods, to not worry as the weirdest thing that is likely to be in the woods is me now I am not so sure? Never before have I found such a strange and bewildering collection of bushcraft folk in one place what is the collective noun for such a gathering suggestions welcome
?) some were fat, some were ugly, and lots had beards!
I was welcomed to the site by a lovely young lady (apparently called Harry) nice, and shown round the site by Ivan (you dont fool me, I know your proper name is Harry) nice, met some of the other campers (all Called Harry), shown where to pitch (right down the end away from everyone else rude) and went for a walk. Really nice place, good location, right on edge of moor.
In the evening forced to eat gruel and argued about inability of Harry to build a fire that provided at least some warmth and light and not just smoke this then deteriorated into petty squabbling about one another shortcoming followed by vicious repeated question concerning parentage, sexual preference, gender and intelligence - Rude.
I am sad to say that under this onslaught of bulling I witnessed more than one poor individual (Harry and Harry I think) seek refuge in alcohol. We should all take a moment to consider our behaviour.
Birding, rabbiting, walking, shooting, whittling, cooking, chatting, chilling was very enjoyable, of note for thanks were Harry for sharpening my axe, other harry for doing binding on same axe,other Harry for stew, little miss Harry for bacon roll, another Harry for chicken wings, Harry for going on and on and on
.and second chief in charge harry (Katie) for allowing her dad to be such a good host.
Lots of good nice people, good to meet you all - look forward to next opportunity
Cheers steve
Harry I gave some money to Harry to give to you, all other Harrys in the camp laughed when I said I would do this strange. Mind you - Harry did look real dodgy. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.
