Hi

[Leeroy]

Hi Guys, just surfed on in when i was looking for new kit for an up coming exped to snowdon. I'm from macclesfield, just on the edge of the peak district, so ive spent many a day when i was younger (im only 23 now) in the fields, in macclesfield forest, which is a fantastic place with lots of amazing plants and trees and general messing about in rivers, streams, reservoirs that kinda thing, i first became interested in bushcraft when i joined the Air Training Corps at the age of 13, im still a civi instructor on the local unit today, i dont get out into t'hills enough at all, think i take them for granted living so close oh and i work in an office and discovered the pub accross the way!!!!!

This site is quality and has really fired my imagination for a few weekends away that i am now planning with a few of my boys. think i will be hanging around and chipping in now and again, i dont have the skills as much as some of you guys on here but i no by the time im as old as you lot i migh just be up there

if anyone else is from around my way and fancies meeting up for a mooch about them pm me! And mikey baby that doesnt include you!

remember good times!!! Always (slipped that in for all you top gun fans lol)

thanks very much, i try to get up to some interesting stuff...

its usually pretty mad, im toying with the idea of getting a canoe next and doing the cheshire ring, unaided with only basic rations with me, scrounging and getting all i can on the way around, im not sure yet tho, i dont get too many holidays from work which is a bummer!
