I'm think about going camping in the not too distant future but I don't have any camping equipment. So, I'm after some tent, hiking boot, hunting knife, flint/fire lighter, etc., recommendations. It doesn't have to be top of the range, just good enough for the job.

Also, any suggestions on good places to camp in the South/South East of England (I'm currently living in Croydon)? I'm not really looking for camp sites with running water and toilet facilities. The current plan is to do this Ray Mears style, survive off the land for about a week.
 
So you want to go from nothing to Ray Mears in one step?
Well I'll be taking some food and water with me, along with a mobile phone, and I don't plan on staying more than a few miles from some form of civilisation, just in case it's too much for me to handle. But I want to try to do it without being dependant on twentieth century plumbing, running hot and cold water, showers and modern toilets.

I might fail miserably but at least I will have given it a go.
