Winter hobby needed

[TrueDink]

That is one scary looking piece of equipment!

[rubberrat]

Great for trimming your toenails too...

lol very carefully.

Damm cheek,

I'll have you know I could (probably) have a boy scout badge for operating just this sort of thing safely.

Had I been a boy scout.

Good grief no!

No scout leader would write a risk assesment for that ! its bad enough with a swiss army knife these days

The even stopped me wearing my Nepalese kukri at camp (OK one scout did ask why I was wearing a sword, I told him I used it to disembowel nosey scouts)

Not only doubles as therapeutic hobby I hope, but will come in handy for zombie wrangling in the future.
however they do offer a real alternative to strimmers

We have w scythe fair in the summer near us where contestants have to cut a patch of grass in the quickest time, its also a green fair with interesting alternative ways of living etc. There is good music as well. Its at the back of a camp site so can stay over if required. We often go. http://www.greenfair.org.uk

looks suitably rustic, we might look into that sometime,
bet Rich would like that too, He mentioned the smaller folk festivals were preferable

[zildjian]

Mike can I have the campsite details you mentioned

What have you done?????

I'd heard about geocaching and after you suggested it as a winter hobby I looked into it again - now meet "DemountLandy" - I may be hooked! Went out twice today on dog walk/geocaching expeditions.
