My name's Gary, I'm from Stockton-on-Tees (It's North-West of Middlesborough and is where the first ever railway was built, Stockton to Darlington and also where the friction matchstick was invented too. Tony and Ridley Scott were both born here too, a little history there for people who've never heard of Stockton!
) I've been interested in prepping/survivalism for a few year's now.I have a few item's, but not much. Army surplus foldable stoves with hexamine tablets. Plenty of candles, matches, iodine (I need to obviously get a few other different forms of water purification! A Gerber lock knife, a few cheap multi-tools, I'd love to get get a Gerber or Leatherman multi-tool, but I have cash problems at the moment. I have a single man survival bivvie I think it's called, it's not a tent, but a tarp that you sleep under.
My family and friends don't know I'm interested in it at all or am prepping, the reason being is because they'd say things like "You're paranoid!", "You're stupid!" and "Stop wasting your money!".
I need a decent bag (B.O.B.), all I have is a Adidas backpack, probably 30 liters which wouldn't help much! I only heard of a Get Home Bag (G.H.B.) three days ago!
I found this site via google, I'd typed in something along the lines of "Bug of bags UK" and this came up, I thought I'd have a look as the majority of survivalism sites are American.
Anyone wanna know more or chat just message me!
