Who in their right mind would hide in a storm drain? Me....If everyone thought eww, not going in there, I will be safe
Less folk the better in my opinion, Let the outside world fight coz I will be taking nothing to do with it, I would rather hide for a month or 2 in a dirty smelly storm drain than live UP ABOVE LIVING WITH THE SMELL OF ROTTEN CORPSES !

depends on the situation, would rather sleep in an attic than a stormdrain, but if a stormdrain if the only hidden enclosed place to hide, you can bet your ass ill be kipping inside it too!

but as a last resort its good to have locations of possible places to sleep, storm drains included!

Cooking would be a prob..cold beans it is then
Does anyone know where I could get a plan of the storm drains in Lancashire?

that would depend on the time of year ! depends on weather or not it would flood , but saying that there are people how have lived for years in storm drains and light fires and cook in them too but make sure they are storm drains and not just a clean part of a sewer or boom lol

Is there some sort of counter you can buy that measures the gas count?

a lighter and a dose of insanity!

and flammable

i think we are turning you into a monster ,or have we just awoken it from the dark side

storm drains are different to normal drains they are designed to take away excessive water to stop flooding the only problem is we dont have main in the uk

i think you've awoken my dark side lol i used to be insane about fire, once had a hole in my jeans, filled it full of deoderant and lit it, end results, because the jeans had lots of small holes in, all of the deoderant caught and my trousers exploded, whilst wearing them xD...oh did i mention this was on the school bus lol
