Re: Value Range foods compared

Just been to tesco and the 5kg sugar has gone up from £3.75 a couple of weeks ago to £5 today. Needless to say I didn't buy any. It was just £3.25 a few months ago

Have noticed loads more than usual the last few days, both in frequency of flights and in the number of planes in each fly past. One large plane ( don't know what it was but it was hug...

Re: What type of person becomes a prepper

When folk ask me about anything prepping related, I always say that I am a ‘what if’ person as preppers gives the illusion that I’m off to live in a cave somewhere. Quite a few folk have asked questions after Covid and the Ukrainian war. Not as in ‘What should I do if Vlad nukes us?’, it’s more ‘wh...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 10

Been spring cleaning and decluttering big time. thrown out (mostly to charity shop) pictures, ornaments etc and loads of books. Trying to simplify my life for various reasons.

Re: Is ,or has, anyone used their preps in a full- on way?

Have used my preps on several occasions, when hiccups have happened in my finances or ill health or just life throwing you a wobbly. I've always been very glad they were there. Never had to go full blown prepping - yet. I do use the contents of my freezer ( big chest) from time to time so that I use...
