Hi my name is Donnie and I have been a lurker for a short while I live up on the far North coast of Scotland and have enjoyed wild camping, camp site camping and motorbike camping for many years. I would like to learn how to maximise my fun and minimize my carry and my impact when I go out and about and be a bbit more self sufficient. This year I have bought a tarp and a bivvy bag and made myself a camping knife from an old metal file. Haven't been further than my back garden with it yet but hope to change that very shortly when I get some time to myself.
