Re: Boats/sailing
Living in central England and not too far from the canal network I "could" have access to barges and a whole marina off smaller craft assuming no one objected. Whether either would make a decent choice of bug out is probably moot . As far as I know it is possible to eventually reach the se...

Re: puncture.........
The best thing to do with locking wheel nuts is bin them and fit proper ones in their place...thieves can get them off easily enough that they aren't a deterrent anymore. On a similar note , I'm in a Facebook group concerned with van break ins ( gets quite depressing to go on with every other post ...

Re: My EDC bag. A brief tour on how i started and where i'm
I have one suggestion, don't know what you carry food wise, saw the energy tablets, I carry those too, but I would also say to chuck in a couple of protein bars, they give you energy but it's not all from sugar so it lasts a bit longer. Generally when i'm out and about, i tend to have something to ...

Re: WW3 - logic
I can't help thinking that one could fit ready made shutters in a very similar time it would take to paint the windows and would be ( relatively) more efffective. i think the idea was to remove the curtains and put something up that is likely to not catch fire I read it as in addition to heavy fire...

Re: How would you get home if SHTF?
I haven't got a folding bike , just a normal one and a transit van . I also don't carry it with me because in everyday life I'm rarely over 15 miles from home and normally only half that. When we go on holiday and use the van we do so because we all take our bikes. Three bikes in a transit eats into...

Re: WW3 - logic
I always tend to think that the logic has a serious flaw not that I'm actually going to argue against what farnet has written.

Re: Hello from Bristol
Welcome. You're not alone in suddenly realising that what you thought was just a normal sensible lifestyle overlaps quite a bit with this thing called prepping . Many of the people on here had parents who have lived a life of keeping a full pantry , full linen boxes , full vegetable gardens and so o...
