Just a thought , but is there anybody from Dorset , or close enough to travel , that is interested in getting together on a regularish basis for a bushcrafty evening/day ? There are quite a few places around that are useable , but havent found anywhere for camping yet (but the scout land up the road could be a possibility for a donation of some sort as long as they are not using it) .
So far this is just a thought , so i have not come up with any details or organised anything . My bushcraft skills are not the greatest so i doubt if i can "teach" , but the idea is to get a group of like minds together to do a bit of bushcraft etc.
Two of the places in mind are Thorncombe woods where Thomas Hardyes cottage is (loads of wild life!) , and Here (http://www.moors-valley.co.uk/) . Any takers ?

Cheers

I'm in East Devon and I'm up for it. I don't drive so I'm limited in mobility to buses and cadging lifts though I'm afraid, so I don't know how easily I could get to east Dorset. Would be nice though :)

There's a few of you in Dorset so you should be able to get a few together, there's also a few in Hampshire that get together. :D

There are a few regulars(bushcrafters not squaddies) that meet every 3or 4 months at a localish pub in Hampshire.
follow the Southampton meetup thread,we're due a meeting soon and you'd be very welcome.We could chat about it over a pint of ale. :)

I second that!

I'm hoping to get to the Southampton meet.

I am definately up for a drive over to Dorset for the evening too! :D
Its about a 45 minute drive to Ringwood for me.

I'm in mid Devon and agree we need a group/club in this part of the world as there are quite a few of us in this neck of the woods.
I have been working on a outline for a group down this way and will publish details in the coming weeks. Nothing to formal or rigid, but a loose/flexible gathering, with a few benefits thrown in.
