Re: What Preps are you doing this week
Thanks for the good advice on the clothing front, it's going to be a learning curve working out what will wash and what won't, if electric prices keep rising I'm going to be using it a lot more.
Already ditched the tumble dryer, and strung washing lines above the bath instead.

Re: What's your all-time most fav book?
I've just finished reading "lights out" by David Crawford, an absolutely brilliant book. Also loved the Swiss family robinson as a light hearted easy read, and Geraldine brooks "years of wonder" for a different perspective on a SHTF story. Am about to start Exo vaticana but it se...

Re: Repeat prescriptions
Does nobody just buy online? Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 2 Is worth a thought, but source needs to be reliable otherwise you have no idea what is in them and its impossible to tell from the website. I have bought prescription meds on-line twice and the first lot was absolutely fine, but im...

Re: Blacking out the windows when dark
I've been thinking about this too, cant decide whether boarding up windows etc makes you more secure from outside attack, or make you more vulnerable in having less escape route in case of fire. It also begs the question how far am I willing to go to protect my home and family (and supplies). I gues...

Re: lone wolf,family or group
Such an interesting topic, it's great to hear what everyone's scenarios would be. For me, I have a large immediate family with husband and 5 teenagers who can't think of anything worse than no electricity. First priority would be to collect my mother who is only a couple of miles away but a little i...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week
Very pleased with my foil emergency blankets that arrived yesterday from amazon, must start sorting the bits that I have bought rather than just sticking it in piles.
I think my next job is to sort out BOBs so the members of my family have one each. first have to buy the bags
