Survival skills day

Such a shame the high winds - 50mph gusts in fact - meant that hammocking in the woods would be risky and our night camping had to be called off (I know, it was a survival camp after all, but even we have our limits). But we didn't let that stop us. Sunday instead was spent learning some survival skills such as wild food prep, firelightling and foraging. A slow cook game stew was prepared (with pheasant, duck and rabbit) and supplemented with fresh nettle and chickweed salad, which we gathered but forgot to eat! All sloshed down with a cup of pine needle tea. Oh, and our three brand new Explorers were invested too.
