The one shouldered Hobbit here,
I know it was mooted for a meet in ole Bonny Scotland for Bushies.
I would love to meet up with fellow travellers of our life, and way, and why not invite other members from the site and make it a UK event if there is enough of us going to turn up that is, and if some of our colonial cousins can make it even better, as we all have differant ways of bushcrafting. might be off topic, but dont give a hobbit,
Just an idea thats all.

I live on the northern slopes of Bennachie, three clicks north of Craigshannoch...give me a shout if you want to go oot on the hill anytime :)
I'm in North Glasgow, Bishopbriggs, but seem to spend most of my weekends anywhere from the Campsie Fells, to Arrochar, to the Cairngorms, to Glen Coe.
Did Aonach Egach traverse the other weekend in the snow - pretty exciting!
Moved up here from Dorset so nice to have some 'terrain'...
