Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 10

Re: Prepping when ill or infirm

Re: Prepping when ill or infirm
We did that 3 years ago now GG , for the same reasons. Worn out with carrying coal in and clearing ashes out, and coping with 47k Propane cylinders for cooking and the severe winters up in the hills. I have to say it felt amazing being here, like being on holiday. Gentler weather, tiny cosy warm hou...
