    Don't Eat Me 16: Homes and Villages

    Notes & Sources Things will be cold, crude, smelly, scary, vexing and demoralising at first, but you can do this.  You can do this because you’re a human and that’s what we’ve been doing for much of our existence.

    Don't Eat Me 15: Survival Skills

    Notes & Sources Learn First Aid: try your local Red Cross, for example. Here's the NZ link https://www.redcross.org.nz/first-aid/our-courses Learn to forage: A New Zealand example is https://www.wildbotanica.co.nz/pages/free-beginners-foraging-guide but these are very locale-specific, so try and find one for your own area or country.  Build a community: learn to ask questions rather than jump to judgement. Try and work out how to re=purpose someone's skills, hobbies and interests for the current situation. At the same time, try and pair people with those who can learn, to have skills passed on.  https://www.wikihow.com/Create-Community Written, edited and produced by Mark Webster, original music by kraM Left, plus self-generated & Logic Pro 12 foley, Aotearoa New Zealand 2026

    Don't Eat Me 14: Moving On

    Notes & Sources On the Sarakatsani shepherds; check out Patrick Leigh Fermor's brilliant pre-WWII travel books. They are well worth reading for an intimate glimpse of 1930s Europe: A Time of Gifts (1977), Between the Woods and the Water (1986) and The Broken Road (2013) in which the Sarakatsani shepherds appear (pp 255-258). The language he writes is simply beautiful, and Fermor captured worlds elucidated by no other, in my experience.  HPR Finberg in The Formation of England 550-1042, Granada Publishing Limited [Palladin] 1976 page 19.

    Don't Eat Me 13: Survive

    Notes & Sources A nod to my sponsors here – I don't have any. No links as this is mostly opinion – if you've been following along, you should know how I got here. So these opinions are definitely not those of my non-existent sponsors.  This is the beginning of chapter 5 of the unpublished book (Survive). How would we, could we move on from an apocalypse?  Written, edited and produced by Mark Webster, original music by kraM Left, plus self-generated & Logic Pro 12 foley, Aotearoa New Zealand 2026

    Don't Eat Me 12: Fats are the problem

    Notes We need fat to survive, which sounds counter-intuitive since we're so paranoid about it, and it's true we get too much in many of our typical Western diets.  But we can't live without it, either, and when things get tough, it's hard to find. There are reasons why even pescatarians like me might end up considering meat. And then there are water-borne diseases to contend with...
