survival skills!

i learned how to make a stretcher out of rope today! we did a simulation where we had to save two girls who were lost in the woods. surprisingly, the brush was thick. my legs are all scratched up. hurrah for brits who don't hafta worry about liability the way that americans do. we used walkie talkies and compasses and everything. at one point i almost ate one teammate's leg. rahul is pressuring me, so that's the end of this post.

You almost ate a leg? Did you guys get lost and you had no other source of food or something?

Can you teach me how to make a stretcher out of rope? That seems incredibly useful.
