Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 4
Been away caring for parents...elderly, infirm, not long for this world. And thats just me :lol: Seriously though, thats what I have been doing. Finally got them to talk about wills and so on, albeit in a roundabout way. Thats a relief, not that I am expecting to inherit anything but bills. Theres a...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 4
If it's as good as it looks I'll be getting some more Its not. As good as it looks, that is. At least mine wasnt. The shelves/benchtops were chipboard that sagged and bent and the metal uprights collapsed if they got a bump. I hope yours is better. I just had some shelves from Lidl that were better...

Re: My EDC IFAK (Individual First Aid Kit)
Im (almost) speechless at how much things have advanced in this area. And how out of touch I am. :oops: I agree on the compulsory first aid training. I was lucky in having a Junior St Johns group meet weekly in the Rec Hall opposite where I lived as a child, so I got to blag in for free as they felt...

Re: Food to stockpile for a non-grower
First thing first, what do you eat ? There's a prepper mantra of "store what you eat and eat what you store", for me it makes sense and while I've had to tweak my normal food to 'justify' a lot more tinned stuff its not been that hard. There's a number of factors that you need to consider...

Re: Food to stockpile for a non-grower
Dont blow your hard-earned on miracle meals, not yet anyway! I was told by Deeps when I first came her "Store what you eat, eat what you store". Just buy a couple of extra items, dried or tinned, of what you usually buy. What you often eat. That way you will build up a store and you will b...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 4
Good to see you back mate ;) I have been off-line too, but for less upsetting reasons. Im glad to hear you are getting over things, that insomnia is a bitch. It plays hell with your mind (and body) when you can least bear it, too. That solar, off grid thing isnt such a dream, you know...folks here h...
