I'll bring my wellies just in case, I might even bring my swimming gear seeing how wet it's going to be this weekend! I aim to drive straight from work so hopefully if there are not too much traffic be there about 6pm.

Hi Simon -I have an issue DPM shelter sheet you could borrow - I'll be trying out my new Tatonka tarp this time out, its huge! Let me know if you want me to bring it! Yes please, I'll like to borrow the shelter sheet. Which day will you be arriving, Friday or Saturday? I'll be there Friday...

Thanks for a great weekend guys, I thoroughly enjoyed my first bushcraft meet, chatting, learning and doing. Bob

Just wondering if I will be able to borrow someone's small pan to cook on? I can't find my camping cooking pot anywhere, all I could find was the kettle, so if I could borrow a pan, I'll be happy to make you a cuppa :-) Looking forward to this weekend.
