West Sussex Newbies!

[Optimystic]

Hello all!

My partner and I have been 'storing' for a few months now unaware that there was a whole community of 'preppers'!.
We live in West Sussex nr Crawley, we dont know too many ppl around here yet so its nice to have somewhere like this to chat and talk things over with! and to realise we are not as 'crazy' as we thought others might be thinking ;p
Weve been stocking up on water and dried/tinned foods and starting to grow our own.
We are beleivers of a financial meltdown rather than a cataclysmic ending of the world and intend to stay in our property for as long as is safe to do so.. living in quite a rural place we hope we would be ok for a few weeks/months untill things settled down again!
Anyhoo.. not sure what else to say other than looking forward to chatting to you all and getting plenty of ideas

Hello and thank you for a great welcome!

Im finding lots of things very useful and exciting! Which is odd really as the world ending should be quite frightening..lol

Hi and welcome. It's always great to meet another person who is aware of potential changes coming and doing something to create a buffer for themselves.
