    Talking Hi from Cambridge, England

    I just came across this website today whilst I was searching for the advantages/disadvantages of "merino wool" clothing under different conditions.
    My first impressions are that this site is a very "Earthy" one and very much about the wilderness with a worldwide audience.
    Over the coming weeks I plan to revisit and learn more about the "modus operandi" of the site.
    I enjoy travelling and would like to do some hiking/cycling in Japan at some point in the future.
    I have done a lot of overland travel in Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam -so not really tough, but involving some journeys of 10 to 14 hours.
    I have camped in the UK and France but not done any tough survival stuff.
    I enjoy cycling and the rain, wind or low temperatures do not stop me -I see them as challenges, I have already bought some snow tyres but as yet have not had an opportunity to use them.
    I have a degree in Textile Technology and changed my career to Pharmacy 15 years ago. Bye for now

    Whew, that was a close call -When I tried to submit my "Polite Introduction" it got blocked, just because I had added an icon from the right hand side, a Chinese smile, which referenced and added a URL. Thankfully this sites auto-save feature works well and with a few "Go Back Screens" I was back to my message and deleted the offending URL before resubmitting it with just a normal "smiley"

    Hello and welcome. The blocking was part of the automated anti-spam software. You'll be able to post links after your 10th post as long as it isn't to your site or one you have interest in.
