survival courses!

RE: survival courses!
There was one in Scotland by that bloke that wrote the SAS urban/survival handbook. I dont recall his name off the top of my head buy he was legit. It was something like £500 ish for a 5 day course in Scotland. That was a whole package with the level 1, 2 and 3 type survival. You have to have had level 1 before you do 2 and so on. If you had the cash, it seemed something nice/cool/useful to do. Some people at work told me I could go to some place sunny and warm with a pool for a week and have £200 left over.. but that wouldn't teach you anything.

A few have said that yeah, you are paying for something and hes getting the benefits... but it might still be something fun and relevant and more likely to be of use than jumping out of a plane.

Despite its complete lack of use I've always fancied doing a close protection course. Or something similar to this http://www.risks-inc.com/eufirearmstraining.html
That isn't the one I found that I liked, but you can do Glock training or Ak47 or long gun type training in the EU.

There is also a course at St Andrews in terrorism studies I keep getting emails about. (It was £2000 for a 16 week e-learning course with a legitimate qualification).

A lottery win would fill my CV with all sorts of interesting stuff. (Plus I'd buy land and a house etc and prep the crap out of it.)
