Wind down!

The manic fortnight is over!

The day's filming for "Little Howard's Big Question" in Epping Forest went well and should be screened in the new year.

The Survival School Wayfarers Course was a great success, with all 9 of the clients on the course building outstanding shelters and managing to fend for themselves with minimal equipment for the last 24 hours.

The assessment to become an approved bushcraft trainer for the IOL was daunting but went well despite the freezing temperatures and the snow!! I will now be carrying out the first training sessions with Dave Watson from Woodland Survival Crafts in March next year.

This year is winding down with just three more courses in the UK before Christmas, but already next year is becoming booked up.

Manic 10 Days!

A couple of busy weeks coming up.....

Starting off next Friday with more T.V. work (it's a tough job but someone has to do it!). This time it's another new childrens programme for CBBC, I'll post more info later.
Saturday is a "Hen Do" for Woodland Ways Ltd www.woodland-ways.co.uk and then on Sunday it's up to Scotland with Survival School www.survivalschoolco.uk for 6 days helping out on their Wayfarers Course.

That finishes on the Friday and on the Saturday I am on a 2 day workshop in Derbyshire to be assessed on becoming an approved Bushcraft and Survival Skills trainer for the Institute of Outdoor Learning.

This is all a far cry from the sun and sand but it's important to keep the basic skills up to scratch.
