    keep your eye on the meet-ups and social chatter forum. Thats where all the meet-ups are arranged.

    There were some posts about a tracking group who met (?) at Merthyr Mawr. I couldn't get along to those but I'd be willing to travel to another moot, work dependant though.
    It seems we have a number of members from South Wales so that might be a more popular destination.

    there are loads of us in south wales (including the sites owner) you should have no trouble finding people to meet up with
    Success is not measured by what you have, but by what you can do without.

    If any of you are interested in meeting up, I have access to some private land of which I can light fires, build shelters, trap animals etc, there is plenty of woodland to roam as well.
    The only month that I got nothing planned is December, so I will be making the most of the site during then.

    That sounds great.

    I appreciate that you won't want to say where it is, but could you indicate a county?

    I'd be very interested, provided I can get permission from the wife! We've a young baby, so I'm not so footloose as I once was.

    Do we need to pay for the use of the land??

    I'd be quite interested to know what general are it is in. Would want to give away where it is exactly .

    How big is the land?

    I'd be up for it and am more than willing to offer my services and teach some skills that people would like to learn, but my spare time is a little on the short side..... and no transport doesn't help

    I could be interested, i live in Shropshire so it would be nice not to have to travel all the way to the Lakes for a meet. Then again if its well in the South or South West Wales....its just as far

    Work dependant, I'll do what I can to get along to any meet.
    I've got a field and a very small wooded area but its very squelchy and is likely to remain so until next summer. Add to that that I'm pretty remote in the Cambrian hills which doesn't exactly mean central for anyone.
    most of the members are based around the south or the valleys so as Tony said - shout out some venues and dates and we can start pencilling into diarys.

    Hi All,

    Sorry if your confused, but I have not had the time to speak to the land owner, I was hoping to visit the site in December, then I will discuss the availability of the site for a meet. So hopefully as long as he is in agreement then we can sort out some dates.
    Hope that helps.

    That would be fantastic if you could sort something out
