Well its been a long time but here I am, the website and my socials had taken a backseat and I did not realize quite how long it had been since I last updated my site, oops.
So what have I been up to you may be asking?
It has been a very busy couple of years since I last posted, filled with lots of changes both personally and professionally, but I’m still here working and building on my knowledge and skills.
Over this time as well as teaching at survival school, I have been working with Survive and Revive, Kit Lyn Walken, volunteered as a tutor/instructor at Boot Up (forest school), and made an appearance and demonstrated/passed on skills at the first Cornwall preppers meet. There was also a TV appearance where apparently I was so Cornish I required subtitles!
At the end of last year I completed and instructed on Survival schools the Original Bushcrafter’s Qualification-the Otzi course which highlighted the wide skill set our ancestors would have had and used
Privately as well as practicing and honing my skills with foraging inland and on the coast, creating more bone flint slate and antler tools, I have been learning how to cast bronze with Neil Burridge of Bonze age Swords, how to felt wool, and making fish leather…..Lots of fish leather….
Currently I am working on my casting skills working with different metals and alloys using traditional/historic techniques to recreate tools and at the behest of my wife ancient jewelry.
At the end of this month I will be attending the freelance instructors meet with Northern Limits bushcraft which will be my first meet/event outside of Cornwall for quite a time.
