The pack of cards come in quite handy during survival. Not only can you fill in time waiting for someone to find you but as soon as you start playing Patience someone will stick their head over your shoulder and say "move that card". :lol: :lol: :lol:

Playing cards could be good trail markers if you move from someone to look for help.

Goody, next you need to stockpile some MRE's, "Army Rations" they're good tucker when you are feeling buggered at the end of the day and they last for years, Just heat em up or just add water and you got a meal in minutes, :Y:

MRE's for me is a bad Idea because I could not stop pigging out on em :inlove: :inlove: :inlove:

That's a damn good Compass you got there, I got a couple of them over here and they are Awesome, :Y:

Yeah Goody you just have to shop around, Most of them are at stupid prices but there are some good deals out there,

I had a heap of them and then a Mate in 2 Para started getting them for me from the rations that never got used,

Thing is for a Lone venture like that you need all your gear to be light and packable, weight is every thing, I did my training and my pack was rarely under 40kg +, Another thing is you can't just jump in boots and all in to something like that, You want to work your way up to it by walking 5 or 10 ks a day and once you can handle that alright then do it carrying a 10kg pack for a week or so and then a 20kg pack,

You can do this with ease if you work your way up to it, :Y:

 

[goody2shoes]

Yes for sure RR

Before I even begin to start the long walk I will be doing walks every day around the place,

Plus do beach walks etc

Not going to wake up one day and got for a 1000 k plus walk

First thing i think of when i hear army rations is Constipation,

I had a Silva compass with a lifetime guarantee.
I moved to Perth for 4 years (I drove) and came back with my family mostly by train.
A year later, I noticed that the compass was weakly pointing South - not North.
I deduced that the compass which was in my kit bag on the train's floor must have been submitted to some damn strong magnetic fields and shock from the train's engines.
I never did claim the guarantee.

What are you Talking about, MRE's have all the nutrition the Body needs and those compasses are good,

Yeah the old ones were a bit ordinary and those survival biscuits were so damn hard all they were good for was target practice or skeet shooting, Lol.
