Mid England

[Ken]

Hi,

Does East Anglia count as 'Mid England'?

Ken

[Martin]

I would say you were in the South East.

It is a funny one every one I talk to from here says they are in the East of the country but I would have thought South East.
We could debate it on Sunday LOL

[Adam Savage]

Would mid England contain counties such as, Northamptonshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Leicestershire and Warwickshire?

[TinkyPete]

I would say probably it would contain the counties of Warwickshire, Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Nottinghamshire, Shropshire, Northamptonshire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire, Cambridgeshire and top of Gloucestershire, the middle of the country really Norfolk and Suffolk I would say are east really. Bucks I would say is close to London so could be in South East or the top part in the Mid but if meets happen anywhere if you can travel there what the heck. I know Wolfcrafter lives in Suffolk but has made it to some meets in Warwickshire.

[Adam Savage]

Exactly lol, I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for any meets I can get to really. I put the learning, and practical application of any skills, above geographic location, as far as priorities go haha

[beechnut mick]

whys that Ken,have the LibDems moved into the midlands now

[beechnut mick]

yes just made it to peasant hehe

I know I should not refer to another site, but there is another popular forum site about bushcraft where we often have meets in the midlands. they are based in parts of Warwickshire fairly close to the NEC, we have two sites we use. One a scout camp the other a wood of which we are the only group allowed into. We have a few people who come from around the midlands from east and west :)

There is also another bushcraft website which organise a meeting near Milton Keynes (the concrete cow place).

If you need references to these send me a pm and I'll give you the details of the meets but I don't want to openly plug the websites on another forum. I realise that most people on this site are not midlands based but it is an excellent site and I don't want to anger the Mods :)

[TinkyPete]

I am also in the process of trying to get another site up and running but it will take a while as I live away from the Midlands working in Wiltshire at present, but as soon as I have details I hope to get some meets up and running there.

Just submitted a letter to a local landowner, in the buckinghamshire areas, but only a stones throw from northamptonshire. The copse is fairly small, and always seems to be damp, but it makes a great place to test wet weather gear and techniques. Living in this neck of the woods, so to speak, it helps to know how to make the most of all you find, damp or dry.

Me to mate maybe they need to say hello and a bit about themself :D

[Naturalmagik]

Live in lincolnshire with a wolf hybrid, want to meet up with like minded people and get outdoors, camping, foraging anything. I have lived in the Amazon for a while, in other places in South america and do everything on my own which im more than happy to continue to do. Prefer animals to people and have always walked on the wild side

[Ben Casey]

That sounds cool well welcome from me :) If you go to the main bit there is a place there to say Hi to everyone none of us bight well I do but only upon request I couldnt say about the rest of them though LOL

I would love to hear some of the stories about what you have been up to Im a bit of a drifter and never sort of get settled anywhere :D

[Adam Savage]

Welcome Naturalmagik. I'm pretty much the same with the preferring animals over people, but most of the guys on here are closer to wildlife than most people lol.

[Naturalmagik]

Thats cool, then im in the right kind of place. Thank you for the welcome. Have a lovely sunday:)

Has anyone managed to sort anywhere in the Midlands.......getting permission etc ?

[happybonzo]

Hi,

Does East Anglia count as 'Mid England'?

Ken

I always like it when East Anglia is referred to as "East of England" which I always thought was somewhere in the North Sea

[Ehecatl]

Just spent last night at a meet near Ashby de la Zouch and I now have permission to use the land whenever I like - Yay!

I think it was the "brandy brownies" that did the trick! :happy-clapping: Air weapons are allowed (not that I have one [yet!]). The only down side is that the entrance requires a 4x4 vehicle but as it's only 30 minutes from me I can easily get dropped off :evilgrin:
