Re: What Preps are you doing this week

It might be a little overkill but check this out for great value :D http://www.amazon.co.uk/50-DISPOSABLE-LIGHTER-CHILD-SAFE/dp...

'Look What We Found' Chicken Tikka - Review
A little while ago I was searching for some MRE's that could go into my 72 hour kit, but without paying the rip-off price tag that comes with most MRE's. I also wanted something which already contained a lot of water in the meal so that I diddn't have to use up any of my drinking water to cook it if...

Re: land rover
What about the suzuki Jimny? Small petrol 4x4, I'm presuming its fairly economical (much more than a Defender anyway) :) and awesome off road too.. Absolutely! Great video here of the Land Rover Defender VS Susuki Jimny off road. I really like them actually, and they're very reasonably priced! Bran...

Re: What medical equipment do you have?
a tourniquet can be safe for use up to 2 hours For the full two hours ? Not necessarily, depends on individual circumstances.
