Re: staffordshire preppers.

Re: London based newbie. Any prepper groups in London?

Hi, here's a link to a website with a free book you can download as pdf. or you can buy it for £20. Its called Beyond Collapse and is essentially my bible. I reviewed it in the books section if you want to look it up. Its aimed perhaps more at an American market but don't let that put you off as 95 ...

Re: HOME CANNING

So did I miss something? Have I missed a page? What was the outcome of the person looking to set up an estore supplying jars etc? Is there someone on here to contact where I can get them or have I got to get them the expensive way like everyone else?

Re: Generator

Thanks for the info :) It looks like I can hope to save enough for a cheap, noisy genny this year. Still at least the mrs will be able to charge her electric toothbrush in the event of a major grid down situation :lol:

Generator

Ok, So I have decided this year the main bit of equipment I want to get my hands on is a generator. I guess I would at a massive push, go up to £400 to buy one but id rather spend a lot less if I could. Nothing to big, essentially I would like something reasonably portable (fit in a medium sized car...

MREuse by dates

Hey there. I got a big bag of MRE's for Christmas from a friend who brought them cheap from someone with a surplus. They generally have a use by date of Aug 2017 on them. I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience of storing them and how long they will last past this date? Should I treat them a...

Re: What preps are you doing this week? part 2.

The last thing I needed was the bag and I found a ridiculously good condition 65 litre karrimor rucksack in a charity shop for £3! The only downside is its a lady's rucksac...

Re: Bugging in. Where to start?

Id say liquids are a major issue, at least in our house they are. We've got probably a week to ten days worth for four people in various forms but they're a bugger for eating up space. I keep a shed load of water purification tabs, some portable water filter - life straw type things and a larger one...
