Overpopulation with climate change

[lonewolf]

depends on your type of neighbours I suppose, I prefer to go off to a BOL and let mine get on with it. they are all non prepping types and I can imagine them all panicking and screaming post event, i'll be better off on my own than relying on that sort.

are you single? I have wife and 3 yrs old. can't see little one bugging out

married, no kids, and wife agrees with me, in fact she INSISTS on bugging out as she said she wouldn't feel safe here post event. although I suppose it would depend on the actual event.

I just hope nothing wrong will happen

as long as we have access to our BOL(s) nothing will.

Sounds like you have a few BOL to choose from then. I live near loads of caravan sites, so could always move into one of those. Would be a good place to forage for food if the SHTF aswell.

If you live close to caravan site why moving to them? if it's close you can stay at your house. besides, what if owner of caravan will go there? will you fight for it? will you ask politely? as about me I am thinking how to secure house for social collapse - heavy doors, strong windows etc. but as there are more important things I leave securing house for later. besides cooperation with neighbours and bugging in may be more important than bugging out.

Last weekend I visited my BOL and discovered a family had moved in. Not only had they managed to get through the locked and padlocked door but they had been at our food store as well. To make matters worse, at least one of them cr*pped all over our solar panels, which I felt was totally uncalled for.

What do I do? I wanted to move them on by force but Mrs B said leave them so now we're totally compromised. I may go up there with the gun but I fear this may be a bit OTT.

Here's the photo I took.

there's always one smart alec.

Robins. Gotta love the little b*ggers. Shame they've made their 'home' there, the nest is right by the door and hardly in an ideal spot.

Anyway, Mr LW, you mentioned BOLs. Forgive me for being inquisitive but are these BOLs your own or are they properties you reckon are uninhabited and could be used as a temp to medium term base? If that's the case, how do you prep to have water, sanitation, food and heat there?

As J23 commented, are you prepared to use force to take or defend the BOL(s) you've got planned?

nosy so and so aren't you? as your from my hometown i'll let you off! our principal BOL is an old deserted (hasn't been lived in for 12 years) rural house, its only 8 miles from where we live and we keep a regular eye on it, its far out into the countryside down an old farm lane, nobody uses it except for the postie and the old tractor. large rooms, walk in pantry, large fireplace and working chimney, septic tank, lots of trees back of and belonging to the property, overgrown so could do with some thinning hence firewood, at the moment mains water is connected but there is a water source nearby which of course I will be filtering for any harmful little nasties. as it is unoccupied no need to use force we can just walk in, as for defending it I reckon to block off the access road, its over a mile from any other (minor) road.
