Thanks go to Alex again, a great Meet. :)

My Set Up:

Didn't need the stove, was warm enough without.

Some dead standing needed clearing out:

Added to the woodpile:

Oh, and a bigger tree needed to be dropped as well:

The rabbit was a bit chewy but the venison was absolutely melt in the mouth, the Charlotte spuds were pretty nice as well.
All in all a pretty good meet, see you all again next month!

Whoot! I managed to avoid every picture! ;)

Great time for the half I was about for, glad I missed the near demise of our tent though...

Ahem. That does appear to be a gentleman operating a chainsaw without a stitch of protective kevlar on his person... :O

Rain last night aswell. Next month, MUSHROOMS! :D

Great pic's. the lack of PPE did make me cringe tho, legs come of very easy with chain saws ;)
And Happy Birthday Scrumpy!!

Top meet again, thanks chaps.

I believe Alex was sporting his usual kevlar budgie smugglers under the trousers.
