    well 3003 actually before i realised
    clearly i spend a lot of time here
    thanks to Tony and the mods for making BCUK somewhere i want to return to
    And thanks to all of you fellow users for making BCUK feel like an online home, those i have had the pleasures of meeting in the real world especially

    And now for the customary give away

    the question
    where did i get my sig line quote from? (i know this might eliminate a couple of you who i have told sorry folks) the top one that isn't in latin

    and the prize?

    your very own boris the bushcrafting badger like this fine example

    And possibly something else i am undecided yet

    It's a reference to Stalking Wolf's philosophy in the aforementioned book "The Journey"

    it's a philosophy of nature in the same vein as Thoreau’s Walden... don't you know
    Great things are done when men and mountains meet.
