| "Thank you all for laying on and running such a great courses this weekend. It was SO instructive and inspiring, and one couldn't ask for better weather in a better location.It got me thinking that bushcraft is a bit like sex - you can read all about it in books but you have to do it to appreciate it. It's also much easier if someone shows you the ropes (hey, don't stretch the analogy too far ;-)" Andy |
