Excellent I'll put it into the car then.

Soup weather do you think ? I could pack the big pot too, get it on early and there'll be a bite to eat.

Is there anything any one particularly wants to make/focus on ?
I've got four stones bored out to make pump drills but I need to make spindles. It'd be good to have them finished ? make the assorted tips too ?

cheers,
M

I am new to the skills side of bushcraft (well campcraft side and a few bits apart) so I have to admit I'm going to see what goes on at meets. I have no doubt whatever people do will most likely be new to me. Also be good to put some more faces to people on here.

Barn Owl - As for the good music for air guitar I'll bring my work phone. Can't guarantee good music but it has a reasonable speaker and battery to it so I can play the music I have on it. I hope people aren't put off by punk. The Clash through to Cash and some obscure stuff in between. Still don't know where I got some burning spear from.

I should have posted sooner - apologies!

I'm rather unlikely to make the Friday (work, then public transport) but I'd love to come down for the Saturday only. Probably arrive at about mid-day and leave about 6 ish?

I'm happy to bring some green woodworking kit if anyone is interested?

Cheers

[tiger stacker]

Would love to go only half a hour away, stuck in Kirkcudbright though. Hope the weather stays dry for you all.

[Barn Owl]

Great stuff Ian.

It's just that they've asked me to do a booking form via the web site.

Think it's just for overnight numbers.

You won't need to pay ocht for a day visit buddy.
