Re: Pen knife ??

I think I have said this before, but my friend is a firearms policeman, I showed him my snugpac EDC and in there is a "boyztoyz" folding locking half serated knife. Its not great but it came in a multipack I was given so thought it was better to use it as a back up. Anyway, he said as it ...

Re: Bleach advice

A quick further question on the bleach subject, what would be the suggested amount to add ? Is it a(roughly) a drop or capful a litre or for 5 litres or what ? Any steerage would be much appreciated. Cheers in advance peeps.

Re: Even more minimal BoB!

I don't keep a 'ready use' grab bag but I have all the things I would put in one around the house/garage. One of the things that I haven't seen mentioned, especially in the smaller bags is a small folding 'shopping' bag. If your BOB or whatever is pretty full already then if you find anything useful...

Re: What preps are you doing this week? part 2.

I've just caught up with the 2 threads finally (phew) and its been a good read generally. I'm in the process of building a months supply of food that we regularly use but its difficult because we're a pair of precious wee souls and don't use too much preserved food in our day to day cooking.

I hope this is the right place....

to introduce myself. I've just recently heard of 'prepping' and realised that I've been a prepper all my life so so had a look around the internet and seen that there is a range of preppers, our Colonial cousins as usual tending towards the more extreme end but now that I know there is a 'category' ...
