!!Getting Out!!

[QUAID]

Well for all you nayserrs, trolls and No-it-alls, i am expecting the usual same old ridicule. You'd all do the same if in my position.
If nothing happens, then nothing happens, it would of been a good test of all my systems and practises.
My limit for re-assessment and possible return would be in around March / April time. Until then i'll keep updates for anyone interested.
But at the moment i have water, supplies, comms, food etc etc.

Quaid, you must make your own decisions , as we all do. I would not criticize you for your actions. You have taken positive action to a perceived threat, which in my book is a good thing. regardless of what any one else say I say good on ya Mate.

UPDATE 2:

Also we are eating as normal and doing the normal shopping run (although a bit further away this time). Our stash remains our stash!
Will be focusing this week on heating and water catchment.

I am a bit confused Quaid! You said you have gone to your BOL to avoid contamination - but you are still doing the 'normal' shop. Is this not defeating the object???

Also who is 'we' and 'our' you refer to? You taken a partner?

[QUAID]

Yes, i am in a fairly remote location which i can still access shops although the trip is a bit further than before, comms are accessible.
My theory is that any location is better than a populous one in this case.

If I had your resources and opportunities, Quaid I would doing the same,only I wouldn't be bugging out, I'd be living there permanently.Sounds like heaven to me, quiet, secure, miles from anyone, private, self-sufficent. Trying not to sound too green with envy

Unfortunately I don't have such a haven, don't plan to bug out, but keep a close eye on the situation and never say never.

If it should come to it, I will be grateful for any information you have posted here on your (hopefully just) experiment. Good luck.

Don't get me wrong, its not easy..... I only plan on staying here short term until Mar / Apr.
Keeping things going is a constant workload. - Deisel / water / Supplies and future planning.

Good to see you mention future planning. It seems the rate of infection may be slowing , but not stopping , so it may be that the disease arrives in the UK later rather than sooner (assuming it arrives) . Does your plan remain flexible enough to extend your bug out period past mar/apr?

It will be interesting to see how you manage over the winter. Looking forward to the updates

Quaid, I am not knocking you believe me, if I was in you financial position I would do the same, the only difference would be I wouldn’t be going shopping, I would have the local Tescoasdaburys to deliver the goods. I would make them leave the said goods at the end of the drive, I would then wipe down each with a 99.9% Anti-bac. I have been tweeting #ebola @mizzach for a while and update the 1600 or so followers with stats and news. I also understand the lies or mis-information that gets published by the CDC and WHO, the numbers they publish are wrong by a factor of x2.5 or x3…maybe higher. If we don’t act now as a race against Ebola the numbers don’t look good.

Each day I take 9 homemade anti-viral pills, I have been taking these for about 18 months now, so I have worked in the normal infected office environment, sat next to a chap that appears to have a constant stream of god only knows what leaking from his nose and never gotten a cold.

The Pills I take contain, shite hot chilli powder, garlic powder, Turmeric, Ginger powder, I buy the empty capsules on amazon and fill them myself. And no for some reason the chilli doesn’t hurt 8 hours later, I think it has something to do with not being chewed.

Anyway Quaid good luck.
