70AD. Neath. So wild haggis are still inhabiting Wales at this time? I'd catch a few of them to help feed me while I hike to Londinium and bag me some prime real estate.
Neath was a bad choice.
We should never have left the Bridgend area. 😥
desperate to eat some beaver are we molly....
😆
if it were me in that situation i'd drink lots of water and urinate everywhere to scare off the predators, then entice the local population of tribal women from round the corner to come party with me in my shelter.
its raining so they'd be all wet and nekkid.
on that note, its raining so it'd be wet beaver. is that harder to attain?
Are there any zombies in this scenario?
So I have to stay in one place cos Bridgend doesn't exist?
Simple. I'd cut off my own leg and roast it. I reckon it'd keep me going for a few days. Might even make a steak and kidney stew.
It just seems too much effort running after rabbits or sheep......
Are there any zombies in this scenario?
Not yet, but the day is young.
Fancy your chances against Welsh zombies with a penknife and access to a fresh water supply, do we? 🙂
Is it the blonde pilot?
was that what the drooling was about?
We're not sure yet if she managed to bail. Damn, she was pretty, too. Be hard to fight her off, even if she was a zombie...
Zombies?
Are we talking the type of Zombies from Dawn of the Dead in the 1978 original or the 2004 remake?
Very different kettle of fish.
It's Wales. I'm more worried about the zombie sheep.

Welsh-Roman Zombie hybrids armed with pen knives & water balloons??
WTF???
That's not bloody fair!
That's not bloody fair!
You don't hear Ray Mears complaining... 🙄
[i]So you're lost in the wilderness...[/i]
Don't worry, I'm sure theres an App for that 😉
The title of my next thread may be...
[i]I don't own an iphone... Will I die ?[/i]
You don't hear Ray Mears at all...
Until it's too late
😀
Nah, first thing I'd do is set ingenious Ray Mears traps around my bivouac. Always one step ahead of the game, me.
Then I'd go cut arrows with my penknife and find myself a cow. Zombie or otherwise, that's good eating.
Ray Mears is a zombie?!
Ahhh mannn...
Now we are totally screwed..
Ha, most folk here wouldn't know what to do with an animal they'd just killed. It would be a mess with probably quite a bit of waste too.
🙂
What about the plane? Did that come through the time vortex? If it did then I'd find that as it would still have my packed lunch in it somewhere, plus lots of salvageable bits.
Although knowing STW the tyres would probably out of fashion already and hence no good to man nor sheep.
Ha, most folk here wouldn't know what to do with an animal they'd just killed. It would be a mess with probably quite a bit of waste too.
Yeah, that was what I was thinking originally, before the Bridgend/Neath conundrum and the zombies side-tracked me... could any of us live off the land, even if we had an iPhone?
Is the time vortex still open?
And is it stable?
More importantly, do I have a companion called Amy Pond?
Let's settle this time vortex thing once and for all.
Said vortex closed when you fell from the plane. The unconscious blonde pilot and plane fell through, too.
Don't give up hope. You're well versed in time travel lore and you believe the vortex will reopen - until then, all you have to do is survive.
As you were.
[i]could any of us live off the land, even if we had an iPhone?[/i]
Depends if theres an app for recharging said iphone by plugging it into deer droppings as I've heard that soil doesn't have the correct apple port.
And if the plane has made it through the vortex, then was the plane taking off from or landing onto a conveyor belt at the time ?.
Ha, most folk here wouldn't know what to do with an animal they'd just killed. It would be a mess with probably quite a bit of waste too
I know the theory. Although I had to throw away a good deal of meat on the sea bass I did the other day.
Does the plane still fly btw?
What's wrong with the pilot? Will she come round eventually, and is she hot?
If she is hot, are there any guidelines one whether she's 'up for it'?
[i]Does the plane still fly btw?[/i]
Bird hunting with a plane ?.
Ask her? It being modern day 70AD and all that
Does the plane still fly btw?
It's toast. You checked.

Mysterious ailment. It'll pass. Trouble is, she landed in the next valley, so you're not sure if you'll get a chance to 'get it on'. For background purposes, it should be said that she bears an uncanny resemblance to Maryam D'abo c. [i]The Living Daylights[/i].
She even has a cello. Perhaps she could use that to whack over aggressive bears/wolves or whatever predators come a-knocking in the middle of the night. She's no damsel in distress, is our Maryam.
For fire you could use the still smouldering wreck of the plane. The blonde will be just about medium rare if you hurry up.
[i]If she is hot, are there any guidelines one whether she's 'up for it'?[/i]
Put it away. Theres plenty of time for that later. Esp if you show yourself to be proficient at providing shelter in the form of a small country pile with no less than 6 bedrooms, a different iphone for every day of the week and food via your live in, double michelin starred chef.
If you've pulled all that off. Then by the power of reverse Engineering, being so proficient and successful, will make you more handsome, overnight. And theeennnn, you can get busy with the babe.
🙄
Are we restricted to the Paeleo diet? Solo will be pleased.
How long does it take to walk to Bridgend?
You don't know Bridgend [s]is there[/s]
Ah, ok. Might be worth the trek to the other valley.
Just checked, bears were extinct in the uk in the 10th century, so that is a real risk.
The cello is an interesting development though, the strings could be useful to use as bow string but that would make after dinner entertainment less enjoyable.
this is easy.
First, disregard this stay where you are nonsense - doesn't work for Ray Mears, won't work for me.
Find something cute and furry. Kill it, eat it, wear it's skin. Chicks really dig that sort of thing (forgive the language and attitude, but it's the 70's, you want to blend in)
Then find some people. Start killing them till they see sense and you become their leader, then find a bigger group of people and repeat.
Keep repeating until the group is the one that calls themselves the Romans.
Congratulations. You are now a god and your time machine awaits
Are we considering the possibility that someone will follow us through the time hole and rescue us?
Excellent alpha male tactics from BigButSlimmerBloke there... he'd definitely be a good bloke to have around in a one-way time travel adventure to Neath or possibly Bridgend. These attributes have been noted.
Are we considering the possibility that someone will follow us through the time hole and rescue us?
No, think Tron Legacy. The access vortex opens and closes. Once it's shut, it's shut and you can't get back, not even if you are Jeff Bridges.

So it's forever then?
Ok.
So you need to think long term for shelter.
I'd last until Saturday evening by which point I'd need to be home to see 'The Thick of It.' Haven't set up series record for it yet 🙄

Yeah but I'm the hot one from that Primeval telly series, so there's bound to be some spangly worm hole along again soon.

You're right. You should never lose hope.

I would use my knife to chop down the trees and use cunning to craft a conveyor belt. Then I would build a crane to lift the plane onto said conveyor belt before flying of into the sunset with hot blonde pilot.
Can't be that difficult, a bunch of monkeys managed it in Madagascar 2. (but they used a slingshot as they were to stupid to think of a conveyor belt)

Thought it was penguins... Gotta watch out for the Penguins man.

Good point. Penguins oversaw the project but the chimps did most of the work because they have thumbs
Ray Mears didn't feature at all

There is an app for that!
