I was a cub scout at a very early age... my mum was a helper (barghera if I remember correctly) ;-) I've been involed in the outdoors ever since, be it scouts/ventures (campcraft), living in the country(traditional skills) or travelling round the Thar desert in Rajastan on camels, or eaten to death by bugs in the jungle.... I just never seemed to grow up and never stopped playing in the woods or wild places ;-)
