A sponsored live in the snow above a ski resort without a tent. I attempted this last year but inadvertantly got engaged and thus distracted but now I'm back, still engaged, and eager to give it another go. Currently I'm testing some kit and working out the logisics. There are various things to consider; how not to freeze to death, how to spend time with my fiance, how not to get carried away by an avalanche / yeti and how to not let this interfere with my job.

Another party
Right then, my mate Neph, he with whom I am due to walk the Ridgeway, has taken it upon himself to organise a party to celebrate the end of the year in the woods. Now details are, like Neph, a little sketchy at the moment but I believe the idea is to have in large in The Cellar in Oxford on July 1st.
Ouch! Punching in all those details online always makes me feel so insecure. But it had to be done - one more donation towards the DitchMonkey total.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many alternative lifestyles, so many paths. You'll surely find one - or more - that suits you in the future. (After that little matter of living in a jungle.) And I have so so so enjoyed reading your adventures, specially the soggy bits. (It's the way you tell them...) I didn't think you'd last thru February: you're tougher than me, and better at eating bacon butties. I thought of you, last time I was staying in Oxford, and using the Oxford Tube.
Must check when you were doing that sleep out? - I should be out under the apple trees by now anyway (in a tent; the easy way), but too lazy so far... would be a good way to see in the midsummer.
In the meantime, thank you for the sheer outrageous grace of going thru with it (and sharing the experience), and congratulations...
