OK so what NEW skills are you hoping to pick up this year?

For me it's storing food, buying basic kit, growing potatoes and archery.

My first skills priority has to be archery. Stuck as I am, I need defensive/offensive capability and archery, as I see it, has to be my best option.

My youngest granddaughter was just asking about trying it (she had an attempt at a show not long ago and scored better than her dad!!) so I have the best reason in the world...

Other than that, we'll be moving house soon and then some degree of gardening (whatever I can manage,) will be next on the list, followed by preserving.

(If I'm lucky enough to actually grow something...)

Thanks for that NR. Nearest venue is a wee bit far but I've sussed a local club in my hometown...

Thanks SS. I'd really appreciate that.

I was already thinking it would have to go that way, so I can reach from my chair. (It's my spine that's damaged so bending's a no-no.) I reckon I'm going to have to collect a helluva lot of rubble though, to bring them up to a working height (and have a landlord that's okay with that... )

Another thought - going to need a trailer to fit on the back of the chair, to haul rubble, soil, etc...
