Lots of good urban survivalist tips come from stories about the homeless. "Stone Pillow" starring Lucille Ball has some blinders. "The Fisher King" and "Down & out in Paris & London" also have some good tips.

Never understood the "american" penchant for warranties, I'd prefer not to have something break when you're relying on it the most. Do Gerber deliver to the middle of the Amazon? I got one of the Lidl folding saws about 3 years back, still going strong.

A word to the wise, nitrate/nitrite use in curing not only preserves the natural colour of the meat, but prevents rancidity of fat as well as being the most effective way of preventing botulism. Not usually an issue if the particular cured meat never hangs around long enough to spoil (such as...

Spent a week working at a festival last summer with the camp downhill about a mile away from the meal tent. 3 meals a day plus the rest of the walking about meant that by day 3, a kilt was all that was comfortable. Chafing, dear boy, chafing.

There's a saying that you can either enjoy the moment now or film it now and enjoy the moment later. But that really depends on how well you film it and ultimately you're only watching a TV programme of an event you were at, but not involved in.

The thing is, most of the time we complain about over-regulation and beaurocracy as the reason why we don't get particularly adventurous, but in the vast majority of cases it's the social obstacles of friends/neighbours/complete strangers that shoots things down in flames. "That'll never work"...

I think you should send the full price, after all, he's doing us a favour :D

I want Bovril that's not "suitable for vegetarians" Is that still available?

And also if you followed the plot of Fight Club, who really said those words? Tyler Durden or Joe (The Narrator)?

Like all viruses, it should be treated with a course of antibiotics, where the afflicted stop taking the pills as soon as they feel better. Don't accept any excuses from the GP (after all, what do they know) refuse to leave the surgery until he's prescribed a course of Carbapenems (last year it...

Hello Chris, recovered from Blades UK 2013 yet?

In Hungary, "white carrot" is actually parsley root (Humboldt parsley). I have some seeds if you want. You might also want to consider planting Mespils/Medlars/Noszpolya (all the same thing) a small fruiting tree. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mespilus...

You 2 are just jealous because the voices talk only to me.

At least he'll have something to eat while waiting for a Green Flag rescue, although why someone would want to make shoes from a german christmas "cake" recipe is beyond me.

You could always go down the fly press route if noise is really going to be an issue

Hmmm, you're not from round here are you?

The texture, the feel in your mouth, the smell of it cooking, none of it is a pleasant experience. There is a Hungarian recipe involving cooking it for 3 days with about 20 changes of water and finished off with plenty of garlic, onion and a rich, strong paprika sauce. Makes it almost palatable...
