On Sunday some of us popped off down the road to have a look in on Naturefest and chillout in the sun, catching up with more old friends and perusing the many stalls and a few of us decided to stay the night in the adjacent camping field. After numerous visits to the Sussex Cider Man who was on site for the weekend I slinked off to my tent at about 2am and believe it or not slept really well!!! The bank holiday greeted us with glorious sunshine and myself and a few other lads from BCL spent the day delivering impromptu bowdrill, carving and general bushcraft demos on the main field after being enlisted by the organisers which was really enjoyable but very draining, there's only so many times you can demonstrate the bowdrill with the sun beating down on your neck before it all gets a little too much!
If you are going to the Wilderness Gathering this year BCL will be having a stand there, giving demonstrations to the public and spreading the word, so keep an eye out for us and do say hello!
