    Red you seem to be picking and choosing parts of my posts and putting them together however you wish and ranting about it, I never said you take offence through ignorance, I suggested that taking "blanket offence" to a request...was ignorant. Especially as on a forum, you choose to read a...

    I dont think its a case of distrusting someone, you wouldn't buy a car without reading up on it...or take a job without understanding what you are doing, its just the foresight of understanding what you are letting yourself in for, making an informed choice? Please dont "Recap" and change the...

    I totally agree Red, the only way you can find out what kind of programme its going to be is to ask, and not just listen to what the researcher/producer is saying, ask if it is in development or if it has been green lit, if its been green lit you can ask for the programme pitch and treatment...

    Gill net advice

    Thanks everyone that's great, I found a guy on Ebay doing net for about £16 delivered, from germany (nets from Japan...would be.). Think ill go for a 30m one, half it for tangle and go for 3 inch. Bit of leadline on the bottom, float rope on the top. Wrap it up and stick it in my kit.

    Gill net advice

    Thanks Toddy, the reason I posted it in the survival forum was because I don't consider Gill nets as "fishing" but more a survival skill. I work in ocean conservation and humanitarian projects, I don't eat fish I haven't caught for all the reasons you can think of. My work consists of...

    Fire Pan

    ooh that's a great idea, I can just strap a baking tray to the back of my rucksack... I normally cook on a hobo stove or in the past a little gas one, but if I am spending the night out on my tod in the woods a nice little fire is always a friend. I have seen ones that people make out of...
