The shed repair continues. Today I discovered 'Demolition Yards' as a source of cheap timber and bricks and more. Cool! Purchased a couple of 13' scaffold planks and 20 house bricks as bearers for the shed. Had change from £40, saving at least 50% I HOPE someone will confirm that scaffold plank timb...

Hi and welcome. Yes the world's going to hell and some levels of disaster we can never be fully prepped for, such as nuclear strikes. But if you steadily build up some reserves and facilities to get over power outages, you can brace for minor irritations like covid or inflation hikes, or some servic...

Thanks. I'll read up on Irpin and Bucha.
I take it you mean military suppression and intimidation by an overpowering invader, rather than societal breakdown. You are right of course. The unarmed are helpless when the armed take control, whether that's invading army, or local warlords.

Society would in fact, break down. You see it in the Ukraine and what happened in Israel. Wipe away the very thin veneer of civilisation and we are no better than the Crusaders, sacking the city of Antioch. I'm not saying it won't or doesn't happen, but I haven't seen reports of food riots or socie...

Shed repair adventure has commenced to plan A. Currently on stilts on one long side with the bottom 30cm of wall removed. A frame repair has been made for that side, ready to go in tomorrow. It looks perilous and is creaky as hell. Floor is totally shot and for now we are simply ripping it out to re...

Being totally frugal, You could get better value for money buying Stockwell beans at 28p and a few tins of Ye olde oak sausages at up to 79p at B&M . Those sausages have more flavour, though they are MRM chicken and pork. Although its stocking two different tins, I'd be more likely to do that.....

Obey the letter of the rules and nobody can complain. Feel free to interpret those rules as you see fit though....... You're a Prepper, contrary by definition ;) Oh they can complain, and do. Fortunately the site manager is easy going, so far. Mine is far from the most neglected :) I do find it tou...
