Camping in the woods - zip line and a new way to open a wine bottle

June was a busy month for work at Ashden, but towards the end things calmed down, and I had several friends from the office come down for a weekend camping.

We actually cooked dinner for 14 in the evening!

As well as lots of time spent cooking and eating, we also had a tour of the woods, as some had not visited before.

And we learned a new trick - how to open a bottle of wine using a tree and a shoe!


The other highlight of the trip was setting up a zip line in the woods, mostly using existing equipment I have for winching trees over:


Although there was an earlier version that didn't work so well!


Looking forward to some more camping trips over the summer, hopefully the weather will stay nice!
