Sarah and I opened the Mac Pop-Up Cafe up along from Challacombe Farm. Todays menu included Salad, Minestrone soup with croutons, Brunswick ham and Cheddar cheese and of course, Hot chocolate. Whilst walking we managed to mainly dodge the rain storms blowing through but we caught some sustained super heavy rain driving home. We’re at home, safe and sound with a warm fire in the grate. #hillwalkingdartmoor #hillwalking #dartmoor #devon #devonlife #hiking #lundhags #trangia #felt #felting #wetfelting #jacobsheep #tartedesalpes #bonnet #beret https://www.instagram.com/p/CkoX4QyDI6Y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This weeks Mac Pop-Up Cafe was set up in the old machine shop just up from Golden Dagger mine. Dartmoor.

Sarah has made me a rather super Felt Backed Rug. We spent the afternoon rinsing it out. It’ll be dry, hopefully, in a few days. #sheepfleece #vegetariansheepskin #feltedsheepfleece #rawfleece #fleecerug #livingrugs #bushcraft #wildernessskills #wool #wooladdict #choosewool #jacobwool https://www.instagram.com/p/Cinji93jPOP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The light caught my eye this evening. I carved this serving/cooking spoon about 10 years ago, from Iron Wood, I have used it daily since, cooking and serving some delicious meals for my wife and I, along with good friends old and new… J #sloyd #bushcraft #bushcraftskills #wildernesssurvivalskills #wildernessliving #wildernesslivingskills #handmade #greenwoodcarving #greenwoodwork #handmadewithlove #carving #woodcarving #greenwoodcarving #kuksacarving #kuksa #guksi #craftsman #madetobeused #birch #artistmade #handcrafted #makersmovement #art #artist #boisvert https://www.instagram.com/p/CiYKsNUDTkB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Making Cowboy Coffee at camp. I know folk who carry filters and such, I never have, this way is as simple as it comes. Boil water, add coffee, bring back to boil making sure to stir otherwise an eruption will occur, remove from heat, tap the pot, leave to settle, pour, enjoy. #hillwalkingdartmoor #hikingdartmoor #backpacking #camping #bushcraft #coffee #lavazza #devonlife #devon #dartmoor https://www.instagram.com/p/CiCtM3ODOYA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
