Well, I can't get the weekend off work but I'll come down Saturday night and be official adjudicator. Obviously whilst sitting in my chair eating a family bucket of KFC washed down with an 8 pack and a bottle of brandy. As official adjudicator I'm excluded from rat pack eating shenanigans!

Brilliant news Mr Webster, obviously i will have special dispensation, to come and meet you(as you don't know where to come)and to help you carry all of the above mentioned items, but please do not tempt me with any of that evil KFC, as we walk slowly across the field.

Your attention to this matter is appreciated.

Thankyou.

Yeah Yeah Yeah! Sounds much better, just had a peep atheir menu,UMM! They do a 14 piece family bucket for £17.00, that way it would still be piping hot! I will bring the welders gloves up with me , don't want you burning those chubby digits! Oh can you grab a handful of napkins.

Be lovely to see you again, old pal, old mate of mine.

Gentlemen, this is a very serious challenge, 8 of the finest Bushcrafters handpicked, finely tuned survival experts in the land.

And as team leader, i must insist that this in house petty bickering must stop, i know it has been a long haul preparing for this excersise, some of you have not seen your friends and family for months, but remember it will all be worth it in the end, i know some of you are understandably a little anxious, but there are only 9 days to go, and you have all gone through so much, to allow a mere thing like, Ray Webmears turning up with everyday food and luxury items be of concern is more of a mental thing, thrown in to the mix to build character and inner strength.

So back up the gym out in the field dragging tyres, packing and re packing your minimal kit, take an hour off if you need , go for a walk or read a book.

So come on! Lets get with the programme, i am off for a run, to the car from the house it's raining, if i can do so can you!

Sorry Ivan ;your inspirational post really shows the quality of leadership we can expect in this most serious of matters
I cycled home from the pub last night. Just to add to the difficulty level I had 5 pints
Today I am getting in some cold weather training by looking out the window and nipping out to the shed between fags and coffees
I feel I am ready but i do fear for some of the younger ones may falter
Got to get back to my ashtray
Has Mr Webster got a proper job now then ?

Captain, I don't think these slack jawed pansies have the balls required for such a tough exercise! One whiff of bfc and they'll be grabbing their ankles and crying for their mummies.

Survival manual annotation BFC =Bovey Fried Chicken a rare and sustaining survival food often found on the edges of Dartmoor.usually taken with hydration fluid known as Coke but sometimes with Beer.
BFC appears to contain some combustible elements and can be used as a fire starter
Natures bounty gives us such riches even in the wilderness

BFC can sometimes be substituted with 'large doner & chips' obviously accompanied with 'chilli sos 'n' slad'
Equally as nutritional as bfc and able to sustain a man in the field for many hours, at least until breakfast usually.

My dear Mr Redandshane, although Mr Webster is one of the larger members of our group and at times displays a voracious appetite, his calorific needs are in fact no greater than yours.
Two instances spring to mind, Mr Webster bought at his own expense a quantity of Black Bomber cheese and expensive crackers for a late evening snack, and not being a greedy man decided not to eat said items, and took himself off to bed.
You on the other hand pretended that you where staying up a little later to finish your beer, have a coffee and tidy up before retiring.

Little did we realise this was all a ruse to devour the luxury cheese and biscuits, with scant disregard for any other camp members enjoyment, not once but twice, i therefore strongly suggest you let this whole food thing lie.

Thankyou.
