Very interesting. This is similar to lighting I've seen in sheds where a bottle in the roof. Light hits the water and gives good light to the interior.

I would highly recommend checking out the Mormon food storage program in your area. The church has a reccomendation of storing a year of food for each person. They have canned dried beans, rice, and flour for very reasonable prices. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2528650/The-super-hoarders-...

Are Mountain House meals available in the UK? These are my favorite meals for backpacking. The are freeze dried in a pouch. Remove the dessicant, add boiling water, and they're ready in 5 minutes. The are a bit pricy $7 US per meal with each meal being about 600 calories. They do keep for ages, are ...

Not sure that's necessarily the case, they might be looking for the easy option but I wouldn't assume that they're automatically cowards, it wouldn't make any difference anyway if there were 5 of them and 1 of you. I completel agree. They are opportunists. I'm a firm believer in small community coo...

For transport my bicycles, with a wee trailer. At the end ...

2 things I would recommend adding to a first aid kit are an aluminum SAM splint and QuikClot. I havent needed either yet but almost did when my dad cut himself with a chainsaw. The blade cut through his heavy work pants and slowed enough to just kiss his skin. He now has a nice scar running 6 or 8 i...

I didn't see a thread like this on the front page so I wanted to start one. The simplest way to minimize health risks in a disaster situation is to already be physically fit. Having a balance of strength and stamina will enable a person to weather adversity that much easier. I'm not a small chap. I'...

I have one but they are short so not ideal for eating big meals! I agree. I purchased one as a light weight piece of hiking kit and quickly found it was ill suited for use with my preferred freeze dried meals. The spoon is too short which results in messy hands reaching into the pouch. I now carry ...
