I looked into herbal medicines a few years back and you may be able to find some alternatives for some of your medications. They used to extract d...

Unaccustomed As I Am To Whingeing (Honest!)...

Forgive me, I just have to acknowledge how bloody hard it is here to prep properly in comparison to the States, especially when you're poor. It would be redundant to labour the obvious restrictions we face here when it comes to personal defence, hunting and fishing and so on, but restrictions on med...
