RE: What set up are you going with? - Luci_ferson - 24 March 2013
I was planning on bugging in , and had a bugout location planned both with the intention of staying hiden and going undetected.
change of plans due to uncontrollable reasons.
now the plan is simpler.
wherever I am is my home, and if you get too close il simply make sure you never want to do that again.
not the best of plans but itl do until I repair, rebuild and restock.

I built my new shed, (cut a few costs on the outer shell) but it turned out pretty well.
finished it on Wednesday, and moved my stocks in, surprisingly it all fitted in well, and still left decent space.
all was going perfect.
I left it on Thursday night fealing pretty pleased with myself.
I went back on Saturday morning and some mysterious act of nature has managed to not only remove and empty everything from my shed/home but it dismantled it and took it away.
including all the offcuts of wood, and the leftover cladding.
only thing left behind was outershell of a water filter. and a clockwork torch.
and not one person has seen anything.
luckily my food stores were still at home. as for everything else . its all in oz somewhere visiting the wizard.
time to restart from beginning.

you must have been watched?

I reckon so too.
one of the other allotment holders commented that the wood I was using was a bit overboard for a shed.
hes suspect one.
and another was watching me when I took some bags to it.
hes suspect two
but either way someone else has to have seen something, and no one is saying anything.
was probably both of them. since it would take atleast 2 to dismantle the shed

my principal BOL is an empty farm cottage, hasnt been used for about 6 years-still has some of the old furniture in it- down a very unused very minor country lane, i dont have anything stored there, i will just bring what i can when the need arises- i cant afford to lose any "stores" if compromised.but its somewhere to go when my home becomes unliveable, i have several of these dotted about the countryside about 7 at last count...not all cottages, some are barns, some are "utility" structures...just trying to keep all my options open.

that's pretty much where im at now.
no purpose built bugout. if I have to move that's where will become my new home.
all I have left is food and 2 waterbuts.
im definitely not spending another £1000 building another bugout.
misses wouldn't let me if I wanted too.

Finding out during an event could be costly.
