Re: In the event of nuclear war...
I can see where people are coming from, from all sides :? I suppose I have a bit of a flow chart myself, like Shrews. 1. small incident - Chernobyl in France etc. I want to survive. 2. limited actual nuclear attack, which gets stopped. I want to survive. 3. big attack. I want to survive long enough ...

Re: In the event of nuclear war...
Face it we need to be truly committed survivalists to prep for MAD. I'm not. We can prep only for the most peripheral contact with nuclear war. I tend to agree with the above, and think it's virtually impossible to predict how a nuclear scenario will play out. I feel that there will be little or no...

Re: In the event of nuclear war...
This is an interesting post - wide ranging, and very well put. Though I'm not as optimistic as you, Shrews, certainly not for my own survival (female pensioner with chronic fatigue here!), I think things would be even worse than you're imagining. But there are still some things to comment on: Days l...

Re: Self Protection Online.
I think watching live material online with a PC falls foul of licencing laws. It's best to check this out for yourself; it's a bit complex. Totally that, if you watch anything live, the BBC can come at you with a criminal conviction :( Last time I gave up my licence, and while I was doing the paper...

Re: Self Protection Online.
You did it! Good for you. Horrifyingly, there's quite a few issues I have to follow up. One thing I've just done is delete unused apps on my phone, as you advise - I'm going to delete a few more before I go on holiday, but because of the holiday I'm also keeping a few like what3words, an extra mappi...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
Good for you, jansman. I know the funeral thing sounds grim, as you say, but I think it's a good idea. With funerals of close family members, the trouble has come from choosing the right music by the right artists, and believe it or not from constructing the service order - typos from the firm chose...

Re: It's still about.
Sorry to hear you've come down with it - the single time I caught it, 18 months ago, it took me out for 2 months. I still mask if I'm inside a public space of any sort, change my clothes after ditto, and clean my shopping (though I did that anyway, once my local supermarkets were outed for rats peei...

Re: Large Quantity of Prepper Related Material.
Yep, read the guidelines, and the rules :mrgreen: and adapt what you've written. If you want to be a writer to some extent, that's a handy skill anyway, to learn to adapt what you've got to an audience. I have a near-future novel I'm writing, every now and again, and I can tell that I drift into my ...

Must catch up if so ... Who else here is this late in sowing :) Me. I'm not sowing anything until I get back from holibob ...
