Sorry, I got a bit lost and then I lost the water bags. I refilled them at the little creek in the jungle... the water was moving, so it's probably good.

Don't mind the color or the chunky bits.

At least we don't have a new thread today.... hell we're still on day one.
...pours scotch and sharpens spear....

Pip pip, fellows! Quite a lively village this is, what?

Anyone for a bit of egg and toast? I'm famished! However, the good news is that I've managed to retrieve my camera fro Uday. That ruffian was about to pitch it in the river when I caught up to him! I shan't tell you what I had to promise him to get him to turn it over to me, but I'll advise you all to keep a firearm near your cots, if you know what I mean.

Here we are....

this one....well, the bottle is dusty, but the liquor is clean:

And the women are national-geographic HAWT.

'cept most of the nipples don't point at the ground

and some wear chocolate instead of grass.

What friendly fellows they are here! I've done a bit of scouting and find that this village seems to be extraordinarily altruistic toward one another... rather a trait we could stand to adopt back home, if I do say.

Go ahead and post, Sir Nigel.

Hallo good Captain! It's a pleasure to meet you! I've been trying to post, but it's most extraordinary... dunno if I'm losing my touch, but I can't see my posts after a moment or so. I'm dearly looking forward to exploring the rest of the village, it looks like rather a charming location.

Coconuts. Always wearing coconuts. And flower garlands. And the skulls of the vanquished.

pass the bottle over here, please.

::: ahh. warms me on the inside :::

Enough already. Recipe time.

First, marinade your explorer in whiskey, then tenderize slowly Use a Flint/LJ combination for best results. Peel, wrap in bacon, spit-roast over a burning pillow. Bon appetit.

Oh dear. I seem to have been locked outside of camp. Can someone let me in?

*Looks around through the bars of the gate*

:eek: On second thought, I'd rather stay out here.

Must have bacon. Lots of bacon. Maybe we could use the bacon we brined from the back-strap of the last explorers?

Come on in. And bring Sir Nigel with you.

Yes, yes.... Where is that bloody Nigel? He was supposed to be bringing the lamp oil and irst aid kit this time.

day 1.5
 

was going to post this in the potd but was unable to

Very Sorry for being late!

I seem to have lost the contents of three water bags so I had to stop and refill them all. It is good water, do not mind the color or the chunks of ... stuff.

I had to stop and refill these waterbags. There was a nice river in the jungle back there, you know. Do not worry about the color or the little chunks of things. I drink this water myself!

This is hilarious:

Well ello there fellow explorers, it took me a while to catch up but here i am! has anybody collected any interesting tidbits of data yet? I am particularly interested in the sense of humour of the locals wot wot.

No wonder you're all eatin' each other!
:eek:

Goodness me, a tribe of cannibals?

Most fascinating, wot wot! I daresay I might just partake of this strange cultural practice, just this once, in the name of science.

For those of you who need aid, there is a doctor in the house, albeit an eye doctor. For those in need, he's the best there is round here.

jolly good, sir ralph right glad to see you in camp...

Classic! These men show signs of the early stages of Beriberi, but they don't need a doctor. They just need a good hearty steak with plenty of iron and B-vitamins. I have ordered the chef to defrost some of our finest, and tonight's feast will include green leafy salads in vinagrette, as well as the mash of root vegetables.

Oh dear! There seems to be some strange supernatural goings on around here. It appears as if Sir Nigel fell into a mystical wormhole and arrived before he arrived. Very puzzling indeed!

If you're watching your thread, you're requested to join us around the fire in chat

I thought that wasn't due til Valentines Day?

Terribly sorry! I got waylaid by themost delightful Native girl... but never mind that, here's the lamps and a crate of kippers.

Sorry I missed the fireside chat... tut, tut... but there's always tonight!

Kippers! Lovely.
Got any jam?

... for the scones?
You did bring scones, right?

The coffee is about ready. Tea for the guests.

I loves da tea, gimmie some tea and ya'lls good!

Don't want to spoil the mood, but...

FYI: Over at AudioGalaxy, Michael (owner) has threatened that all accounts will be unverified unless users help test an updated version of the satellite (file-trading software that got him in hot water with the R|AA). Many users are migrating to less dangerous territories. Flint made a dramatic "I'm leaving" thread that spawned a spirited debate about whether people should come over to the Cellar. And then these guys showed up...I'm just sayin'

They aint gettin no cherries on this board. We've seen this before.
Storyline aint bad either.

the expedition seems rather....sparse at this stage.... were the directions really bad, or is travel perlious?.....

bad maps and perilous travel, and moderated first posts, tough trip so far lads but if you are patient perhaps this safari may get up and running yet i will send word back one more time, my rations are getting low before we have even begun...

big crew in chat, sir john....do pop in and have a .....pop, whay hey?

jolly good

by day 5 we should have things good and proper

PIP PIP get to work spags

Well, not a bad idea.
But just trying to sort the men from the boys - kippers and jam is proper explorer food.
Better even than pemmican - except it doesn't last as long...
That's why they have to source some long pig.

Flint.... Shoot. Not another AG invasion.
I'm barely over the last one.

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND BRITISH FOOD. WHAT SENSIBLE PEOPLE PUT JELLY ON STINKY DRIED FISH. EVEN NORWEGIAN FOOD MAKES MORE SENSE THAN THIS!

lol @ wolf!

I'm picky anyway...I would starve to death over there. :)

Wait, these fish/jelly eaters are the same people who freak out about the merkin pot-luck plates where the fruit salad might make contact with the lasagna???

who the fuck puts jam on fish? Sundae's off her blooming rocker! Now fish paste on fruitcake, that's a different matter :lol: (still bloody disgusting)

:lol2:

I think the Cellar snow globe needs a shake-up right now. I welcome our new semi-sentient overlords.

Kippers ent dried! They're fried!
Lasagne & fruit salad is weird, admit it. Partly because it's not even planned.
To be fair, I've never had it. It comes from a Cockney song (ditty) my Grandad used to sing. Apparently it was a popular dish back in them days. But from what I can gather, jam might have refered to chutney (a savoury concoction). I like kippers, but I'd rather have a bloater...

No idea what that is, but :yeldead:! Ugh!

Beans and toast, the best British food for it surpasses ramen noodles in protein.

Hi madjack!

well, they're cured by smoking which does make them drier than regular fish. They're very greasy though, it's best ti grill/broil them (microwave works well too). i've never known anyone to fry kippers, perhaps that's a southerners' thing? Dana? i have some kippers in my freezer. i fear they need rescuing and discarding now, though -the one I defrosted the other day was past it's best :(

drift...drift....
& meanwhile back outa the jungle, the expedition lumbers.

I think it's safe to say that -while the explorers exhibited qualities rarely seen in posters of their ilk- they were no match for the cellar and have been or will soom be assimilated or eaten. or buttfucked in the mouth :p

yeah, nice concept....piss poor execution, at least so far.....

i'd like to know which of them came up with the idea....or if it was borrowed...

Bullshit makes the flowers grow
