After reading about the 60 second plan on http://www.theplacewithnoname.com decided I really should keep my wallet, keys and phone in the same place every night instead of scattering them around the house like I usually do. Also new USB stick will soon be ordered, filled with family photos and copies of important documents, encrypted and stored in the car.

Re: What Preps are you doing this week
If TSHTF are you that certain your car would be your best option? Or (heaven forbid) someone breaks in and takes it just because you have nothing of value in your car. Do what the rest of us do and attach the USB stick to your BOB. If TSHTF you'd probably take that with you...stevegray wrote:Also new USB stick will soon be ordered, filled with family photos and copies of important documents, encrypted and stored in the car.

Planning to prepare is not preparing. If you've got money in abundance help others without it. If you don't have money READ! information can be more helpful than money in many instances and share what you learn.

Re: What Preps are you doing this week
Steve, absolutely, theplacewithnoname is an amazing website! But I'd be really careful of storing such a usb stick in your car - even in normal times, there are car thefts, after all. I'd agree with attaching it to your bob. I've been working on that flash drive too - scanning years of photos.
Re: What Preps are you doing this week
As alcohol fires can be extinguished just by spraying on water, I purchased two dirt cheap plant sprayers from the 99p Stores. It means I can do my alcohol cooking and alcohol bioethanol fireplace stuff slightly safer and can extinguish flames if they get out of control, but before they have ignited any more flammable things in the flat.
Only downside is that they are supposed to be "ladies" plant sprayers, and they are covered in pwetty flower pwints that make them look terribly cute and girly.
I am sure that the girls would hate them as much as I do. Still you got to use anything at your disposal and in your budget.
