Lol. Why do you think I gave you half of my last rations on Sunday. :wink:


Pffft! Let him self-rescue. It's his own fault if he doesn't have enough food.

True. I was poorly equipped. I would've been fine, but slower. :D

Easy to speed you up - just walk in front waving a packet of Tim Tams at you.

A sure fire way to ensure that I never lose something would be to cover it in chocolate. There may be other repercussions, but still, it wouldn't get lost.

At least you know there is someone else out there like you, perhaps a bit more careless... and hungry
