OK running a free survival weekend for anyone whom is interested.

I think for the first one it should be in the south east of England - i suggest Kent but this may change.

If you would like to put yourself down for this please post here and i will contact you via PM.

This will take place this summer.

Thanks.

well so far we have 6 people and a couple of partners - looks like we are getting set for a great time.

i think if the demand is high we could run two camps at the same venue, just to get a community thing going on, maybe bring back the barter system - who knows might not leave and start our own village!

whatever the outcome you are all welcome to come - just pop me a PM or post here and i will send you an invite.

You might wanna stay clear of me and waazup while we are setting up our tarps. I hear paracord when tied around tree trunks halts their growth.

But I'm sure you'd feel the rope being put around your body before it's too late.

No no no, I'm just forewarning you of a common environmental problem. Many people leave the paracord around the trunk which halts its growth because paracord is so strong the tree can't snap it.

I would like to come along on this but can I bring my dog?

August 22 is a long way away. Nearly four months!!!

Surely something could be organised sooner than that? All that is needed is a campsite near some woods and any weekend.

A helluva a lot is going to happen in the next four months and I've a feeling you won't be able to drive anywhere soon. People need these skills now.

Why not a meetup every Saturday or Sunday at a pre-arranged spot? Anybody can turn up and we all traipse off into the woods with our books on survival at the ready. First we all build an SAS type A frame shelter and then a campfire. Somebody could maybe get some dead rabbits from a butcher and we could have a demonstration of skinning and gutting and then cooking.

Also; if somebody has a particular skill could they volunteer to express it as part of the overall experience?
