Re: Straw Poll. How much food do you have in reserve? How well do you stock rotate?

Re: NEW MEMBER
Hi and welcome, like your attitude, it'll take you far. Endorse all the advice given so far. You know what resources you have at hand and how to use them but think wider than food. If the 40 refers to your age you're not an older man, just a youngster to many of us

Re: Evacuations-when you have to bug out in the UK
My situation is a little different, I live where others would be bugging out TO. So I suppose my bug out preps would be more of a security issue. Keeping my stores of food and fuel from the hoards bugging out .

We managed but doing all that laundry by hand was tough. I realise that on the practical side, I'm pre...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
potting up "baby" strawberries and giving them away. I reckon the more food that's being grown by people in general the better. Planning to pot up chives today and sowing seeds, if they they come and I have spare I'll pass the plants on. There's a local community sharing shed where you can...

Re: Value Range foods compared
Just been to tesco and the 5kg sugar has gone up from £3.75 a couple of weeks ago to £5 today. Needless to say I didn't buy any. It was just £3.25 a few months ago
