Re: Wanting a good book

Found a few on Amazon UK http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bugging-Out-David-E-Crossley/dp/1291266836/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1363728838&sr=1-1 Page 27 reads well, as it is based in the UK, and I think he (the author) has some useful knowledge. It looks like a new addition judging by the da...

Re: Guns,air rifles and weapons

I'm sure you know exactly how to, and what you would do so, so does it really, and I mean REALLY, need to be discussed on here? I came here to learn some useful stuff about prepping, I am sure I could find similar stuff on lots of other forums on the internet, especially on some of the ones in the U...

Re: security

ive said it before , a simple alarm mine . uses a blank shell , lots of noise and mayhem usually after its been tripped ..makes the buggers think they`re being shot at . less than the cost of a good digging spade and legal to use . http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Alarm-mine-for-detering-intruders-/111025...

Re: growing land

I had the chance to add to my patch by renting a neighbours patch, but I wasn't going to be taken for a mug as she hasn't touched it ever, it is covered in brambles and other under-jungle growth, said I could have it for three months rent free to clear it, and then she wanted £10 a month for a strip...

Re: security

Security cameras like they use for wildlife watching, not cheap, but the alternative is to remove all the tools and take them home each time.

growing land

I guess this might have been asked before, but how many here have a piece of land to grow edibles in, root veggies, Peas, beans fruit etc.

I have a little patch that does give me some fresh stuff, but last year was a bit of a washout one way or another.

How much, if any, do people have?

Re: Home CCTV on a budget?

Much the same here WP except I would suggest getting one of their 8 channel models. They sell them with 4 cameras but it gives you the choice to expand later. I suspect as soon as you have 4 cameras you will wish you could have 6. This way you can expand the system as and when you can afford to. At...
