Apologies being late to the party (as usual), but there are wild variations with home electronic ones. Don't get me wrong, they can be good, but a cuff, stethoscope, and a quick read up on how to do it is likely to be your best bet. As another said though, if you're not too keen on that, Omron make ...

Well after being away from this site for a very long time, my first prep was to come back :D Aside from that, I was thinking about clearing out the car later on, and adding/replacing as necessary. There's a definite lack of cubbyholes in my vehicle, so I might get a few of those seat organiser thing...

What Yorkshire Andy said :lol: Haemostatic gauze is great if direct pressure alone won't work (which is rare - it's amazing how bad a bleed direct pressure will sort), but QuikClot is an absolute nightmare; it'll stop the bleed, but it's hell for the A&E staff to remove. Even if it were a TEOTWA...

It'll definitely be a whole different kettle of fish prepping over there. As far as the non-B.O.B preps are concerned the order of things will be much the same - extra food each week, something to store water then move onto the pricier things if/when I can afford them and in whatever order that migh...

The BOB I've sold was more of a major catastrophe type bag. In the event of something more mundane (and likely), I have a different bag, and that's getting re-homed but not sold. But that wasn't my point, I'm just asking if you'd do anything different. Also, consider it a compliment that as soon as ...

Well, I've just sold my bug out bag. I feel like crying! :cry: It was necessary, because I'm moving to the US to be with my fiancée in a few months, but it got me thinking - because I'll have to start all over again when I move - if you had to start all your preps again, would you do it any differen...

I love this topic! :lol: Both my ex-partner and my OH are aware of my prepping. My OH is American and so is already more open to the idea than many! Previously I had been partially greeted with this look: :roll: I tended to find that she got too hung up on the reason why I prepped, rather than seein...

I'm in agreement with lots of folk here; honestly, I can't see a truly major disaster of any kind hitting in my lifetime, but that's not to say it won't happen. Personally I prep for economic instability (or even total collapse - it has to happen at some point) or nationwide power outages for any re...

I've got that exact same drainer, and given that it no longer spends its time draining utensils, you have just saved it from a swift exit from the house. I'll be giving this a go! Gread idea; thank you!

A compass.

But not for drawing piddly wee circles
