By the sounds of comments a lot of you would be saying thats not a bad thing!?

Still, I will watch it again to check it out.
One
question: During the episode with the BushTucker Man Ray showed him some Cramp balls (fungi), Ray said the latin name for this fungi, he said something like '
Genus Concentrica'. Now I dont know that many Latin names for things, but there was one I thought I was sure about;
Daldinia Concentrica is that not the latin-name for the cramp-ball/King Alfred's Cakes Fungi? Is there more than one latin name for this fungi perhaps?
I always enjoy seeing a new Mears show hit the box, however I must admit I have been a little disappointed, it hasnt kept me as interested and captivated as most of his previous shows. That is just my personal preference, I understand that he is putting a major focus onto History and the paths of people from the past, I'll still watch, its still entertaining and educating in places. As you can probably guess im more interested in bushcraft skills, tricks & nature in general than certain parts of history.
With all the past straying comments about Ray & Woodlore its been very tempting to post, taking sides and expressing views, but I'll try not to wonder off topic.
What I will say is that I highly respect the man that he his, the work he has done and his ethics to life.
