Be The Jam

I really would have thought that I would have learnt my lesson by now and stopped having "good ideas". Most of yesterday was spent trawling the internet researching the  snake, spiders and diseases that one is likely to encounter in the Amazon, this got me thinking that going to live there is not such a good idea. Add to that that this week I'm looking after my Sister's house and animals whilst her family and her visit the parents and as it's not viscously hot as it was when I was in London recently this is the first time in a very long time that I have been comfortable. Logically then, sitting here in comfort researching the potential discomforts of the Amazon should be enough to prevent any further desire to do stupid things for a while, I would have assumed that it would be time to pursue comfort for a while. Then I started reading up on all the edible plants that there are about in the wilds of the UK

So for the last week in August / first week in September I have decided to spend a week in the woods living off the land (save for a couple of kilos of rice for emergencies).

What can possibly go wrong? As always you will be the first to know.
