Introduction

Post by Nanc81 »

Hello all from Northern England.

Been prepping for approximately 15 years now. Mostly food storage, improving my wilderness skills ( foraging, fire lighting, knots, water filtration) improving my fitness.

I seem to have developed an obsession with torches.

I have one friend who I also prep with.

Wanted to join a forum to learn more from others, have fun and possibly meet other preppers.
