sorry friend, you obviously know nothing of rural areas and Devon in particular, get away from the coasts and the urban areas and the population is very low, my own town has a population of 1300 that abouts the same as some villages, and i know villages where the population is less than 85, there are plenty of places to hide in.
gotta agree with BP here, if i were to walk a few hours, the population density would be in the low single figures PSM, i could then walk for days and days before it rose to double figures!
i keep seeing mini prybars on peoples kit lists? are they any use? i'm only asking as i cant imagine one single use for them, except opening dried milk tins and the like? (in which case i'd use a flatblade screwdriver on my multitool?)
PS...when i'm talking low single figures PSM, i'm not on about the square mile i'm standing in, but a 5-10 miles radius.
