    with the Discovery Channel and that Bear guy! Its a survival weekend for 4 people in Scotland where you have to build your own shelter and make fire without a match!!! :eek: My boyf cant stop laughing at me - he does not think I am very outdoorsy but I have always wanted to do something like this. It will be so exciting. Will have to get into 'training' now lol.

    Do you ever watch his programmes ?
    My favorite was when he found the rotting meat and ate the maggots off it for the protein....or maybe catching and just biting into the live salmon....and especially squeezing the moisture out of the cow dung into his mouth when he was dehydrated !
    Last week i saw him skin a dead animal and sleep in it's bloody fur to keep warm...that might have been Scotland?

    Anyway, hope you have fun ;)!

    Oh my! No I have never watched them - maybe I will avoid them until I have been - dont want to be sleeping in cow fur or drinking dung juice! Will have to sneak a carton of Um Bongo in lol
