Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11

A mate of mine came to see me yesterday. He works for Severn Trent and told me that the forecast will be causing all the water companies to be careful of leaked piping. They are obviously concerned about the poorly people where the water has been contaminated. :( 17.000 houses in Devon caused that ...

Re: Advice for a hopeless gardener

It’s interesting that ‘self set’ spuds are ok when farmed spuds go bad. Our gardens here have onions that suffer from disease,but not the perennials.

Re: Long-term storage of meats and fish? What options?

An interesting topic. As a professional butcher I have dried and stored meat in various ways, both farmed meats and wild meat. No problems and there are loads of recipes and methods. In our modern world though it’s an irony, as when the old style preservation was devised it was because of lack of re...
