Re: New member, just saying howdy

Sounds like you're starting to get really well set up - have you practised gutting the birds etc? I've seen it once in real life, and seen it a lot more than that on Masterchef etc :oops: harder than it seems, I think. Loving the sound of your van!

Re: New Member, where to go for information as a newbie?

Welcome to the forum, Ben, I'm glad you've reached out and joined. I'm just seconding GillyBee's advice - food, water, utilities. The forum is divided into sections, and there's a lot in each.
