I'm new here, never really considered prepping as a actual thing (though it has always been in my personality to basically prep) but then after watching the tv show you are all probably sick of hearing about the wife has also thought it would be a good idea, so all my idea's have now came into play.
I am a Biomedical scientist so can help you folks out with different diseases, pathogens and cure's etc
I love shooting my air rifles and hunting, I do rifle tuning customisation as a hobby so if anyone has any air rifle related questions feel free to ask me, i'm always happy to help and have quite a bit of knowledge in the area.
I have always been a sort of prepper since I was young and was in the scouts, so these days I always seem to have various medical items and multitools on me.
I don't believe in any sudden disasters happening or the 2012 myan calendar end of the world prophecy, but I do believe in slow moving disasters, global warming leading to sea levels rising, increased humidity and temp across Europe allows mosquito's carrying malaria to breed across Europe etc causing mass disease. Global economy crashes due to massive debt leading to riots and eventual collapse of the government. But I also prep for smaller things, like heavy snowfall throughout the UK which cuts off electricity and traps people in there houses, it has happened the last few winters in the highlands and the winters are getting worse, so simple things like a store of food, and alternative heating and light options.
I'm a friendly guy and always happy to help
