I got some lush blisters (again) from my new trainers this time doing some orienteering today. I failed the course cos I couldnt find the first bloody flag but I soldiered on and got the rest of them. It was only a practice so I'll have plenty of chances to pass. Only one person passed today getting all flags in the time limit of two hours, not sure how long the course was today?
On my way round I almost got shot by some people hunting birds, well not really but it was a bit of shock thinking your on your own in the forest and a shotgun goes off next to you.
I also ordered my sleeping bag system from the US ans A. Hopefully it will come before we go to russia in two weeks cos it might be cold? during the night atleast. I had enough of sleeping cold when we went to the forest the other week.
More pics from cooking with Turkka last week.
These were Kuru haggis, a meat and herb mix that were packed and boiled in some nylon tights.
The haggis is ready for boiling. I dont remember how long it took to boil but it was pretty tasty with a little mustard.
Tim fried us up some fish cakes the girls made for a snack
Clay oven chicken
Seishi getting the clay ready for the chicken
The chicken was stuffed with lemon and wrapped straight in the clay, a few leaves of colts foot beneath and on a wooden board.
The clay oven in action on the fire, we left it there for a couple of hours to cook.
Ready to eat. I didnt get a picture, but one of our 'veggie' friends went to town on one of the chickens. Proper scoffed it down and still says she's a veggie.
Mira frying us some pancakes to go with our afternoon coffee.
What is this? (Borat)
Cooking eggs in sphagnum moss. It didnt really work out cos the fire was too hot and it was hard to get the eggs close enough to the fire without burning the moss or exploding the eggs, so some of them wernt cooked properly.
Thats all folk's. There are probably a load of spelling and grammar mistakes all over the place cos my spell checker aint working today. Never mind.
