    Columbian hostages

    Ok you're taken hostage in Columbia. Who by isn't important, let's call them F.A.R.K.
    You're taken to the middle of the jungle. Is it better to stay where you are and hope for rescue or try to escape?
    Hard Brexit now!

      Us newbies will only have heard the myth and legend of the original columbian hostages thread told throughout CUK history.

      You will be disappointed in the 2009 remake I can promise you.

          Do you mean in South Carolina, or the ex-space shuttle?

                Are you hoping for a discussion on the topic, or on how the old board was better?

                In anticipation of an answer of the former, I reckon it depends on if you can get a knife & how much jungle training you've had.

                If I were a permie man-manager, accustomed to the sitting behind a desk all day and posting on internet forums, I'd stick with the gunmen.

                  As opposed to being a dynamic contractor with jungle-traversing skills eh?

                  I would take off - it's in my nature.
