Vindicated? Fell away from this site, but not from prepping.

Hi everyone. I used to frequent here a fair bit but a stressful day job and an (Ever more) energetic toddler got the better of me. Thankfully though I never fell away from prepping in general.

My new flashlight

I got this as it was in my amazon Wishlist and I got an email when it became part of a lightning deal. I got it for £50.

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 5.

I bought a bunch of Duracell industrial batteries from amazon. 40 AA, 40 AAA, 12 D and 12 C cells.

Also starting to work up a food stockpile. I’m thinking just tins of things; soups, spaghetti etc.

Oh and I also got another new premium torch. The Olight R50 Seeker. It is AMAZING.
