This bloke thinks capitalism is "flawed". His idea is very noble and all that, but the cynic in me wonders what "relying on friends" really means, and whether the, ahem, roaring success of his previous headline-seeking jaunt, a walk to India, may cast a shadow of doubt over his seriousness as to this one.

'Economics graduate Mark Boyle, 29, plans to live off the land in a borrowed caravan while relying on friends and "a woolly jumper"'.

No offence, and however worthy, but the man is a cock. And not necesarily about this:

'A previous attempt to walk to India without spending money ended in Calais when his lack of French meant he could not explain his mission and he returned to Bristol.'

no offence, but this might be a dead thread. 'Cos he said it all, really.

Have Ovieda (sic) stopped their winning streak recently?

No, if they win tomorrow, it will be twelve wins on the trot.

I know, I'll change the thread title.

I'm pretty sure that "we did" this fellow's failure to walk to India.
