Re: Barricading / Home fortification.

My normally sleepy place has had a prowler the last week or so, he/she has been around the back of my house a couple of times. I used to have a secure metal gate, but the builders removed it for work and it didn't fit after (my walls are 5 inches thicker now) they put up a wooden gate but it's not ...

Re: "storm" kettle first "play"

Great aren't they,
I snuffed the fire out at first due to being impatient.

Re: Want to know the best place to bug out?
