Re: Who's getting the vaccine

I volunteered to be steward at the local centre - First day there nurse comes out at the end of the shift.

The Nurse asks who has not had the jab? Two of us put our hands up and she said come with me. They had two left so job done though side affects for a few days.

Now waiting on 2nd jab.

Re: 2 Person tent

Vango Tempest 250 or 350 if on a budget - Is what I use.

OR one Snugpak tents if not on a budget - is what I aspire to.

Sewed the last of my seeds today. This year not planting rows of potatoes other than a few grow bags. But going all out on the tomatoes as our village cafe will take any surplus.

D - Deter ie signs etc
D - Detect ie cameras, gravel path etc
D - Deny ie fences, barb wire etc

I found keeping that in the back of mind helps formulate a plan.

Just keep it legal.

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 8.

That was very much the situation with the last owner.She ‘tried’ to fence it off halfway. The new owner ‘thought’ that was the limit of his property.

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 8.

Like many people here I have been increasing my fitness levels and been walking with my GHB most Sundays. Started with 5 miles and now up to between 15-17 miles most trips.
