NaturalBushcraft Meet - Oct 2009

**Nightwalker** · 04-10-2009, 17:20

NaturalBushcraft Meet at Woodland Valley, Ladock, Cornwall.

Sat 24th, Sun 25th, Mon 26th October 2009

- All ages & new-comers are very welcome
- Dogs allowed, but have to be controlled at all times (nearby farmer has a reputation for shooting at them!)
- Costs: £5 Per Person Per Night or £2.50 each-day for day-visitors. This purely covers your own rent which is paid to the landowner (NaturalBushcraft takes no money for these events).

As always we welcome all new-comers to join us in this friendly atmosphere of likeminded Bushcraft people, sharing knowledge, skills and good-times as freely as posible. There's no set demonstrations or classes, yet there will still be tons to learn like Fire by Friction (Firebows), cooking bannock, making pot hangers, all are encouraged to join in if they wish to and I will bring along spare kit for people to use.

There is a 'Doodle' where you can put your name down and see who else is coming, check-out the Doodle on the NaturalBushcraft events page here.

We would very much like to see some new faces (aswell as the old ones too!). The local clan is a friendly bunch, the previous meets have been great fun, so please see if you can make it, it'll be great to see you all there!

Yeah sure! You can all come!.. Just visit here and put your name down on the Doodle to say which days you can make. Not so sure about Chris the Cat, heard strange reports about'e from Dave Budd's gathering that none dare speak of?

Of course you can come

**rawshak** · 06-10-2009, 10:17

Just wondering if it's worth doing a facebook event for this too Ash? There's a few of the old hats I've not seen on the forums for a while, it might be worth getting the word out, the'll not get an alert for this thread as it's a new one.

**Sainty** · 06-10-2009, 12:09

Hey Justin, there is a post on the Westcounty Bushcrafters Facebook group.

Really looking forward to this meet.

It'll be great to see new faces and meet up with older ones again.

Martin

**Sainty** · 06-10-2009, 12:16

Thanks mate!

**smallholder** · 06-10-2009, 21:35

Sounds like some fun, i think i should be able to make it.

**JoyR** · 09-10-2009, 03:11

I'm desperate to make this one, miss you guys! I'm up in welsh wales now so it may be a bit of a mission, but if I do make it, I should potentially be bringing two others. Steve may not make it, depends if he's taking a Trueways course or not

**Nightwalker** · 14-10-2009, 18:52

Hi Folks,

Now I know this is a bit geeky but we're trying some new!.. a pre-virtual meet!

No honestly, for all those who think they may attend the meet we are trying to get as many of you as we can to hook up in the NaturalBushcraft Chatroom around 8pm on Mon 18th. We thought it'd be fun to discuss what we might get up to on the day, creating ideas allowing people to think what they might bring to show and share. So, if your free for a while on Monday evening, drop by the Chatroom at 8pm for a laugh. You can get to the chatroom by choosing it from the menu on NaturalBushcraft. More info about the virtual-meet on the events-page: http://www.naturalbushcraft.co.uk/ev...-24th-26th-Oct
Speak to you all soon!

**Chris the Cat** · 14-10-2009, 19:29

Will give that a go Ashley!
I am a ground dweller,so am I ok under a tarp?
Do not have a hammock (but thinking of giving one a go sometime!)
My best.
Chris.

**Chris the Cat** · 14-10-2009, 19:31

P.s,anyone fancy PMing me their mob. no. in case I get lost driving down?
Cheers.

Chris, you'll be fine ground-dwelling there. Its also suitable for Hammocks and if you like I can bring a spare one for you to try? Just let me know and I'll be more than happy to lend you a hammock.

As for a mob no. im sure Martin (Saint) will drop you his, im sure he knows the roads round that way better than I and im notorious for not having my phone on me whilst in the woods.

Speak to you Monday evening bud

**Chris the Cat** · 14-10-2009, 21:02

Thanks mate,a go in a hammock would be great!! (First time!)
If it is not too much trouble,then yes please!!
So tarp and sleeping bag,how about a mat?
Thanks again.
Chris.

**Nightwalker** · 14-10-2009, 21:10

Yeah I was just gona recommend a roll-mat. The evenings are getting a lot nippier now and it can get chilly on the underside of a hammock, so a roll-mat would still be advised.

**Chris the Cat** · 14-10-2009, 21:22

Will do,thanks again.
Chris.

**Asa Samuel** · 14-10-2009, 21:34

Really wish I was coming
