Going to lurk the forum and probably post a couple of guides in the near future (I'm sure I know some stuff that people might find useful)
I am a middle-aged office-guy who has been somewhat of a survival student since my teens (25 yrs ago at least ^^)
Started on the little blue book way back in the late 70s and progressed to John Wiseman's SAS book and several years of bushcraft, fieldsports and martial arts study.
Currently settled and comfortable yet maintaining a modicum of preparedness (no paranoia here
Take care
Jeggie
