Re: Sanitation

I have been looking into this myself and have a Lulu Tourlet (camping toilet - bucket) for the little ist of my grandbabies and latrine virgins. There is also the small toilet seat into a bag system for bugout on foot journeys. Adults get it but kids need transition. Love the idea of sealing off toi...

Re: What preps are you doing this week? part 2.

I am saving up for a lifesaver cube now! Fantastic. I live under flightpaths and I would love to filter the rainwater successfully for drinking but was never sure how I was going to do this! yay

Prepping on a tight budget

This past few weeks has been really interesting. I am disabled and have to run a household on a very low budget. Every week I try to add to my component groups - Food stock, equipment, gardening etc. I am exploring Approved Foods for dry goods. Spices, noodles, powdered soups. Great website but down...

Re: Door Stops

I have one of those alarmed doorstops. I use it so I can leave the door open slightly for the cat to go in and out. Very loud alarm.

Re: Hi I am Gina from Doncaster

Thanks for that. I do have water purifiers and filters. Nowhere near enough though. I have no other local water source within legpower. Nor do I have a bugout plan hardened. I know where but how is dependent upon the SHTF event. I have planned to bugin initially and I can survive 6 months if there i...

Re: Hi I am Gina from Doncaster

Thanks Kev. Yes, B & M is my preferred gardening supplier, lol. I realise that a one man tent from Poundland might only get me a brief reprieve but a girl loves a bargain! The best buy does have to be the first aid kit for a pound. The burn gel alone was worth that, it's in my car.!

Some months ago I decided that it was imperative to start prepping now. If I had the money, I would buy land but I don't and I was super fr...

Re: Hi I am Gina from Doncaster

I am curious about what other people prep for. I suppose just about every reason to prep might be considered someone elses conspiracy theory. Personally, I should have been born pre electricity as I prefer to be self sufficient. Anyway, I apologise for any offence caused.
