Nothing major, but I will go and see my insurance broker in the morning and see how to proceed. More aggro! It was quite a spec...

Re: Bugging in. Where to start?
I have one week of storecupboard eats all together, but everything else (about a million years of dried beans :oops: for instance) is stashed into plastic crates upstairs, or on a bookcase in the kitchen.

Gorgeous! As filsgreen said, very neat, very tidy and I love the emphasis on the grapes
Interesting how high you've raised that bed for the carrots - do you grow them there each year? Does that create any problems (if you do)?

Re: Prepping in Cumbria & is it better to prep as a team?
CJB, yep, I know where your partner's coming from, as I work in that kind of area myself ... but its not true of everyone, as you know. It can be - but in every walk of life, there are people who pursue an aim sensibly, or intensely, or crazily. Plenty of people like pop music (to give a mainstream ...

Re: Prepping in Cumbria & is it better to prep as a team?
Welcome to the forum! It's great that you've joined, and in response to your question, my advice is to keep on joining in - longer term members will want to know something of you online for a little while, before meeting IRL. Just my twopennorth.
