Remember that the own brand versions of Immodium for example are a lot cheraper when stocking up. I woud add Vicks or equivalent (We use this for athletes foot too) Also some Tea Tree oil and maybe some treatments for nits, worms etc depending on your personal risk profile. Yes, I've found that Sup...

Steri strips I've found dirt cheap on ebay as well as normal saline. If you have any Chemicals around its a very good idea to have a chemical spills kit ready and know how to clean up safely. I can give a rough outline of an all purpose spills kit if anyone wants it (science technician with lots of...

Hi all, This week I am focussing on medicines/over the counter stuff that is handy to have in, especially if it becomes less accessible. I have a separate first aid/trauma kit, but for the medicines kit I was thinking that the following would be useful: Cough syrup, cough lozenges, zinc lozenges, vi...

I know most people I know prep for a cashless society, however, I am very pleased to report I am now devoid of my credit card balance and overdraft (what a relief!). I have a small amount of savings but was wondering if anyone buys in to having a few months wages accessible in case of sudden job lo...

For a long time we weren't able to save, we've gotten to having about 4 months or so salary saved. It came in handy a few months ago when I threw a paddy and walked out of my job.

Your poor 'Spatial Awareness' used to be called 'poor sense of direction' which is probably a better label to tag yourself with and one everyone understands. If you've grown up in a town/city and not been out and about a lot camping/hill walking etc your sense of direction/where am I, will be poor ...

Honestly, my onions, carrots, garlic, chillies, mushrooms and sliced tomatoes seem to last forever. I'm still using onions from 4 years ago. Thank you I will try those timings. It's incredible that some of that lasted for 4 years. I'm going to dig the dehydrator out over the next week or so and giv...

And if you are dyslexic/dyspraxic the words/concepts of left and right can get very muddled. "Your other left" as I have heard used... You may do better using hand movements or arrow symbols to help you remember a left or right turn. My sons find their memory of hand shapes and movements ...

I absolutely adore my dehydrator and wouldn't be without it. It pairs up with my mason jars and very cheap mason jar vacuum tools. Sounds like you have got this all worked out :) Yes bananas were exactly like chewing gum! How long do you put the onions, garlic and mushrooms in for to get them to th...
