Re: Preferable water source

Thanks for the suggestions. I am sold on the sawyer filter, though the price is high enough to sting so it is a purchase I am going to need to plan for or sell something to raise the cash. But is it actually necessary since I already have the mill bank bag? I like the tarp too as it would have sever...

Also my drain pipes have arrived and I have a saw now for them so hopefully will get some better weather to cut them into pieces for my burying experiment. Bring in the last of the pumpkins and plant out the last of the leafy green...

Re: Small containers for burying

Turkey: How much of what sort of things are you wanting to stash ? Food and tools. I have been growing my own stuff for years and I am also competent at animal husbandry so I would just need enough to outlast mobs before I can start growing as I lack the ability to protect against such things.

Re: Small containers for burying

I live in a shared house so there is little room to store, my bedroom already looks like a warehouse. As it is rented I can not add any security enhancements either.

Small containers for burying

Given my current situation I have concluded burying supplies is my best option for protecting them. Which begs the question of the method to do so. I have thought of buying some basic tubs such as this: https://www.target.com/p/sterilite-56qt-clear-storage-box-white-lid/-/A-13771723 I would then bur...

Re: Throw away society and EDC kit

Aptly, we were discussing Casio watch straps with my missus's mate last night when she was round. She' manages a branch of a well known jewellers, she was saying they charge 12 quid to change the strap and it costs them £3.50. She was saying the watch batteries cost them 2 quid too although I can't...
