Hello from Devon
Hello from Devon
Well, there's been growing global instability for a while and I've been preparing for a couple of months only but going pretty well. My main issue is storing stuff without irking the other half by taking up too much space! She thinks I'm fairly bonkers but won't say outright because "if I'm wrong, I'll never hear the end of it."
Re: Hello from Devon
Welcome
Getting the other half 'on board' could be seen as the holy grail. Baby steps to begin with. I kinda got my missus on side by having a few things in the stores just for her. She ran outta smokes, and I scored major brownie points by producing 20 coffin nails out of the stores. I even have a few boxes of her preferred brand of tampons.
If she's kinda okay with your prepping, but is a little resentful of space being taken up, have a look around on this forum. Space, and hiding preps from prying eyes is an oft covered topic.

Hello and welcome to the Forum.
Two is one and one is none, but three is even better.

Re: Hello from Devon
Welshwiz beware of the £1 shops often it's cheaper in the supermarket or BM / home bargains
If your roughing it, Your doing it wrong
Lack of planning on your part doesn't make it an emergency on mine

You do need to check the dates on B&M tinned stuff though, worthy of consideration if you are intending to store longer term.
