Hi from Hampshire.
Hi peeps.
Dabbled in the survival movement back in the days of Lofty Wiseman,looking to improve my family's practical insurance in an uncertain world.
Massive fan of Kunstler,Ruppert,Martenson,Orlov etc.
Know there's change on the horizon,just when or which manifestation is uncertain.
