Living off the land 100%

Some people are beatniks.

Stan is a nick beets.

Appetite returns with revenge.

Steamed mackerel with coriander and lime served on a bed of leek and potato stew with marjoram and oregano. Only the lime did not come directly from land/sea, and that came from the market for just 20 Cents.

Saw the woman from yesterday (gathering herbs) at the market. She was also selling wild snails. Why have I not thought about that before? Will go hunting when I start moving again. Really looking forwards to trying that. Need to Google a bit to be safe.

You'll need to purge those snails.

You are being so obtuse you have to be taking the piss right?

Can't be bothered to check but I seem to remember early posts on this thread along the lines of "Stanley's adventure will go right until it goes spectacularly wrong and he ends up in a ditch (toilet) crying"

I can only admire the prescience of whoever wrote that.

post 29:
He'll be found in a ditch, mark my words
 
OK. Another concession to 100% living off the land. I have been to the chemist and bought some Ibuprofen.

But...

I am going to search the streets and the beaches for a second hand syringe, crush the Ibuprofen, dissolve it in sea water, and then inject it directly into the pain of my foot. I think that makes me about 80% honest.

--------we are all adults with adult minds and adult senses of humour aren't we?--------

Some times it is best to ask first. I would have preferred opium, but cash does not allow presently.

To remind myself: I am going to make lists of all I like about Portugal, and the very few (but, critical) things I don't like.
Shit, I just saw this. You didn't fucking do this, did you Stan?
 
No way does Stanley have the patience to find snails, keep snails for up to 2 weeks to purge them and finally cook them.

If he finds sufficient quantities of snails, he'll get bored after a day or so and eat them without purging them, suffering the after effects.

It's almost as bad an idea as foraging a syringe for crushed up ibuprofen injection.
