mackem 28,238 Posted September 25, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2023 Got tickets for myself and my youngest kid to see Les Stroud AKA SURVIVORMAN last Friday,got to rate the show as better than sir Ranulph Feinnes it was such a feel good evening. it was in an old honky-tonk jive club in Ottawa,at first I thought we were at the wrong place as it only had a maximum capacity of maybe at most 100? Stroud told of his beginnings knowing he didn’t quite fit in during his childhood,he was different,he wanted to go walkabout,stretch his legs.He got a job as a canoe-guide in northern Ontario,met his wife Sue and they disappeared into the wilderness together for a full year surviving as hunter-gatherers,when they got back to civilisation after the year someone asked how could they afford a full year off work,Les reply was “How could we afford not to?” in the bush he conceived the concept of the initial survival program,but when pitching the idea to a TV company was told no one would be interested in watching a man trying to survive in wilderness on TV. After the show he came shook everyone’s hand,thanked us for coming,great evening,really enjoyed it,show was three hours long,if he ever comes to UK book a ticket,great entertainer,dry sense of humour,and him and his mate Pete are exceptionally talented musicians. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Get a few views It’s not even a channel mate in reality,just a couple of fishing clips,I have a Go-pro here,I might link it to my phone as I am going up near Lake Huron this coming week to fish a salmon run,would be good to get proper footage of the fish underwater,I saw footage a guy made using his underwater fishing drone and it was really impressive.Here’s Mr Stroud playing harmonica for the going fishing song. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
