Re: Strength and fitness
I think I'd describe myself as 'robust but chunky'. I often wonder if being on the slightly portly side would help in a genuine emergency involving food shortages. Certainly, my personal fuel tank would keep me going for quite a bit longer than others'... People quite often confuse 'Ripped' with Fi...

Re: How to raise money for a home/retreat
Probably not what you want to hear but mortgages are a lot trickier now, its not just how much you earn. A friend of my missus was putting down a stupidly huge deposit (like 75%) and she still had to jump through hoops and they changed the goal posts at the last minute (she got the property). I've ...

Re: Lifeboat Rations for GHB/Car Bag
Hi Folks, just looking at some things to fine tune my car bag for the winter - I picked it up and its HEAVY... Trying to cut the weight down it's clear that the 24 hour ration pack and hexy cooker weigh a fair bit, so looking to swap them out for lifeboat ration type food. I don't need the bulk of ...

Re: The age old question
I had an interesting chat with Her Maj's pal who was round last night, she has a pretty good idea that we have galloons of food (this prompted the conversation) and she's one of these people who has empty cupboards/fridge and buys stuff in as and when. She probably has a grasp on some of the other s...

Re: The Humble HOB.
I've not got a BOB or anything like that, I've probably got all the stuff on the lists people like to compile. To my shame I've still not (well got Her Maj to) got all the copies of our documents and that scanned and saved on flash drives etc. I do see your HOB (like it) as more useful than a bag fu...

Re: freeze dried foods
Aldi are good for somethings and not so good for others, their tinned stuff is as good as any and dried not bad, i try and do a bit of both if i can, i.e, aldi and tesco, can't go wrong. Where else could you go in for a tin of beans and come out with a inflatable canoe, log splitter and a portable ...

Re: freeze dried foods
Haha I never noticed that! I've never actually been to an Aldi before :oops: maybe I should take a look Get yourself down there, Aldi's and Lidl's do some really good stuff, fresh veg is good, they don't do EVERYTHING like Tesco's/Asda but we've gone from doing our 'big shop' in Tesco and a wee spi...
