The famous Foers Nomad and the boat


More on Wild Camping

So you've cleared your campsite & found the toilet & shower. What to do next?
Well there's a fire dish in the yard to cook a meal on; and this year I'm building a pizza oven!
Also, I have a 12ft dinghy with a small outboard and towing/launching trailer if you fancy a run around one of the many nearby lakes. Or buy a licence and do a spot of fishing. I can tow it there and back for you.
Also, if your vehicle insurance covers you, I have an interesting old pickup, a Foers Nomad (google it, you'll see a pic of mine there). You can do your shopping in it or drive to a walk. It's your choice.
So, it may be a wild camp, but it ain't that wild! Just diff'rent!

In answer to the govt. of the day!

Investment in either of the 2 main sources of “renewables”‘ wind or solar, whilst definitely the future in electricity production in the long term, is only half of the equation. The other half, the storage of the eletricity produced, is still in the research stage.
Panic not, chaps! All will be revealed in the fulness of time! But please keep away from the naughty nuclear! Mummy & daddy know best!

A guy named trump for president? You're 'avin' a larf!

Any english speaking country which is prepared to elect as it's leader someone who has a name usually associated with a colloquialism for "fart" must be entirely unmindful of it's standing in the world, cocooned in it's own arrogance. Surely? & this, aside from the man's congenital idiocy & ignorance in the world's affairs.
Imagine the scenario of him negotiating with Putin! Two arrogant fools in charge of Armageddon!

READ THIS PLEASE THIS WEEKEND!
We can no longer pretend that"things" aren't as bad as the climate scientists are making them out to be! If we don't do something serious to STOP! global warming, it will STOP! us!
Two things to start now: 1) reduce fossil fuel dependency drastically: ie. down to 0% within the next 10 years. & 2) reduce the world population by 50% within the next generation. Although by not doing the first, the second will be done for us without any effort whatsoever upon our part!
