Re: Thoughts please
Plus, you want to be able to discuss plans, and these could change rapidly if you hear people approaching. Separate tents are very disconnected. I suppose two bivis and tarps are less so, I've never tried it. Thanks for the tent links I will look through them. Regarding communicating we (and all of...

Thoughts please
Not sure if this should be posted here or elsewhere so I will leave it up to the Moderators to relocate this post if required. I hope the following makes sense: I am looking at setting up our 2 x Emergency/Bug Out/Relocating Bags (1 for my partner and 1 for myself) from scratch. The equipment will a...

Re: Straw Poll. How much food do you have in reserve? How well do you stock rotate?
You can make a substance called "Bird Lime" from Mistletoe fruit or as they do here from Holly Bark. Put on a tree or twig the bird lands on it and cannot escape. Many wild birds can be used as a food source, I was introduced to crow meat here by our friends on a hunt who cooked it over an...

Re: Straw Poll. How much food do you have in reserve? How well do you stock rotate?
Not wanting to piss on anyone’s bonfire but this idea of going out hunting with a bow or whatever is close to being a prepper fantasy. Check out Gamekeeper John on YouTube (based in the UK) for hunting with a slingshot. I brought home a pheasant today from my morning dog walk, 12mm BB to the head....

Re: Hi
Where in the world are you? What's different about prepping for you? E.g. weapons law? risk of war? Urban/rural? Different retail availability? We don't discuss weapons here, so just a general answer, I suppose. I am located in Bulgaria. Prepping for us? We survive on the fruit and veg we grow and ...

In theory I could shoot ducks and geese, but I only have a catapault at the moment. Bow and arrows would do it. With a slingshot and a 10/12 mm BB you can take down pheasants/ducks/squirrels etc. with no problem (subject to to being an accurate shot of course) much more reliable method of hunting t...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
Pressure canned 32 jars of dog/cat food and 16 of Muscovy duck, also put the food slabs into the beehives before adding the winter insulation. Tomorrow we start a couple of days preparing all the surplus spuds prior to canning them.
