Hi everyone
New to bushcraft, not new to the countryside, and have spent my entire working life working with sharp items be it a cleaver, knife, bone saw, or machete (we just called that a knife..)
Not really in a position to get out much due to life commitments, but building up my kit, and watching this and reading that, in preparation for when i do have the luxury of a day off. For now it will mostly be walk in london woodland looking for sticks for whittling, and probably tying up tarps and hammocks for no other reason than practising procedures and knots.
I am coming from a forum where i mentioned i had bought bought an emergency fishing kit and all that resulted in was lectures about overfishing, basically s tuck up place where everyone is arrogant and make assumptions even if they know nothing of my intent. I simply read the thread about handlining for mackerel and figured this was a far nicer community open to discussion without prejudice :) So i look forward to getting to know you guys, as well as pillaging you for knowledge :) I'm London based, so please do let me know if there are any outings or meets happening in that kind of area :)
