In that case mate, thank you. It's genuinely appreciated.
We've all been let down, some more than others. I know you've had it hard quite a few times, so I hold nothing against your views.
Thank you mate.

Although i hope to meet more preppers as time go,s bye, i think that the very reason we become preppers, we are covert and secretive lot, bye the very nature of what we do...typing a reply to a post is one thing, meeting up with fellow preppers is something else...a commitment..you agree to meet up face to face, kinda like against all we want to do...we are cautious and rightly so...if we meet up and s13 is there with his sixpack body and devastatingly good looks....ummm....joke..... and driving a robin reliant , would we view him differently FACE V POSTS ......well maybe....but the content of posts is what i look at...it shows the real person to me....there is no hiding, none the less the one thing that binds us all is the common factor we pretty much all agree the many why we do, this should transend all

Providing we are not aemchair preppers, hold similar views, and have our interests as those of the group, then it would work.
Having a view that groups don't work, is exactly the kind of perspective that can damage a group.
Really appreciate the idea of BP wishing the best for it. Cheers mate.

i wasnt implying that groups dont work, i was simply talking about my experience of RV's, a group owning some land is a different kettle of fish altogether, i hope this gets off the ground and i'd be happy to see it work successfully.

I think teaming up with at least one other person will be essential, for me at least. That way I could have all my preps, bulk stored food etc kept at their secure location, with some basics, a BOB and BOV at my end to get me there. I couldn't really store loads of stuff If i go to uni, nor would I be able to if I joined the army.
Failing finding some likeminded people to join up with, a piece of woodland or suitably remote area with some kind of hidden retreat / storage would have to do. Ideally in the long run I have my own remote place, preferably with other people, but that will take a while.
