OK so I've been stockpiling and rotating food for a while, and I've got about 1 years cache of ASDA smart price corned beef hidden away. (approx 150 cans). I use about 3 cans a week (I make a large pie/pasty once a week using 2-3 tins which does 2 family evening meals, and lunch at work for 2 days)....

Thanks Plantiejo For me prepping is more about picking yourself up after a fall, dusting yourself off, learning from your mistakes and making preps not to fall down the same hole again... Obviously if I get a heads up about the hole in the first place, thats even better... ;) Reading this forum has ...

As an afterthought... You may read my above post and think to yourself, that if my preps are a sort of insurance against personal SHTF senario, then why not just save for a rainy day... When for us the S*** did hit the fan a few years ago, we realised that the bank would ALWAYS take their share of a...

I believe that the chances of a natural disaster disrupting life as I know it is pretty slim (apart from the annual snow). However I have always been a very independent person (even as a child), I see my preps (a few months of food, allotment for fresh veg, etc...) as a way of becoming more independ...

One of the staples of my stores is corned beef... "nothing wrong with corned beef, lasts for ever and even comes with its own can opener" Anyway I keep a keen eye on the price at my local supermarkets, recently the ASDA smart price cans have been £1.80 they are back down now to £1.54 (same...

The dog de-wormer tablets is a good question. If as a prepper you are eating from the land (rabbits/birds/etc...) then its safe to assume that you will get worms (both threadworms and tape worms). We have 2 cats who enjoy hunting and eating things smaller than themselves, we have to worm them every ...

Thanks for the welcome. Although I eat meat I've never actually killed anything (perhaps a spider or two), but if its a matter of getting my hands bloody or seeing my family go hungry its an easy choice. I think wild rabbits are fairly common where I live so I will have to research how to turn a rab...

Ok I know I've only been a member for a few hours, and already I'm on my second topic, but so many questions.... I live near 2 or 3 water reservoirs, I also have limited home storage. I've been assuming that living so near these water reservoirs (and living in the what seems the wettest region of th...
