Lads,
 Just carry some jerk and a little aitmeal..Ye'll be well content. These are
two of the things in me weskit or rolled in me haversack.
 If the lad has not enpough sense to carry a wee bit a food wi' him. Then,
he really need to just stay in bed..<G> I didn't think I had to spell  out
things that are just plain common sense...But I guess I do.
