  1. Robert"Nod" knott had advertised a workshop on Facebook but due to circumstances this had fallen through.He offerered to do a free one day talk on Excercise/movement in tree climbing instead if enough people were interested.I had a week's holiday booked so this would be an excellent way to start in and sounded perfect for my healthy new lifestyle! Firstly i had to get to Stowe near Buckingham for 10 a.m on Saturday....So i packed my Pick up and headed South....After a few hours i arrived here!
  2. What a superb day at Stowe with Nod and Woodenhand.Will post pictures and details once i've found somewhere to sort through the days photos.
