I was a very good boy today and did all my homework for the weekend.
I managed to spark a fire with my knife and flint using thisle and dry grass. Then I went to work and made a bannock bread.

At the mo there is only three of us doing the Challenge, Paul, Chris, and myself.....Paul has not said much about it, so I am wondering if he is coming now.... I may just cancel it and do it later in the year...Chris and I spoke about it last weekend, and we may just camp up at the Club, and have some play time with the Bows as well :)

Hell yeah do that instead, I am trying to work out if I should get some new shafts for the primitive bow. Not sure if it is worth the time and effort as I am still playing around with different bows.

Sorry Guys I've Canceled the RAT Pack Challenge as I have now had a PM Apologizing that something has cropped up and An Attender cam not make it. Its a shame but hey ho that's life, and as only one other has confirmed interest then I don't think Its worth running.

Chris's Question on teh other thread

How did it go?

Had a very long in depth answer/question session with the Quality Manger and one of the Directors.... went in to most of my experience and the Industry's and what I had done within my wayward Carer, what disciplines I have covered, touched on what contractual experience I had had as a Project Manager and the size of portfolio I used to manage... funny for a Quality Role.. also asked if I would mind travel to different parts of the world... it was very a interesting interview and stretching at times but different to what I expected.. the feed back from the Agent sounds like I did well, but I await and see.... they are having a meeting on Monday to decide from what I gather..

Most important sound like its a place that I can make quick progress....
