Ray Mears - My Fake Diary

Sunday, 9 November 2008

Off to the big City tomorrow. Civilization and creature comforts.

Book-signing do at Waterstone's for my latest literary survival work.

Me and the publisher came up with a great idea of having the book printed on pages made from stretched and dried pigs' intestines.

So if you're in the bush and need a quick meal, just tear out a page or two and boil or barbie for a few minutes until tender.

I tried it the other day, tasted like shit, but the book's a fair read if you need to know how to make a coracle out of a dead porcupine.
