is anyone else a big fan of Ray Mears

[mccfluff]

or am i on my own, i love his programmes, they are sooooo interesting, i'd like to think that if i was stranded in the wilderness i could last for at least one day (ob not his fault mine for being crap) but i just think the programmes are informative about the enviroment and how we can co-exist but without being patronising, anyone else feel the same or not even!

sorry but no, there are only so many times per episode you can watch a man looking smug because he's made a fire

When the world ends I want to be near Ray - he'll get me out of it.

Brilliant bloke. I think he runs a school on his subject. Google him.

i too think he's great but rarely manage to catch his programmes.
I liked the one where he was in a british wood, and made so much from the things around him. But when he was sat very still at night, waiting to see the badgers, he said that they crunch bluebell bulbs, and it sounded like someone was under the ground eating pickled onions!
before i die, I want to hear that noise!
I don't think he's smug at all, though.
