thinking of possibility of introducing rabbits to the island, free protein Big Grin

as it an island, you will have to bring everything you need..from food upwards..in by boat, thats the one thing that puts me off islands, also if the island is overrun by raiders/scavengers/whatever you call them there is no where to run.

scavenging is my plan though Wink

i mean i'll have minimal stores, but i'm deffo not stockpiling anything. if the worst comes to the worst, your stores will run out, and you'll have to start scavenging Cool

the thing about having stores is...yes-eventually they will run out but, having a food store enables you to keep your head down whilst its all mayhem and WROL outside.

If you can cache some supplies on the island it sounds perfect

A woodlore 30th anniversary mora, some Grandpa's Pine Tar Soap, a crossbow, a led lenser H7 head torch, some shit from poundland, some hemp beer (lovely!), and a hand made MLL knife on BCUK. I may need somewhere to bug out to, especially when the wife finds out about the MLL!! Anyone got room for a hammock in their garden?

Oh, and a new shirt.

And a DD 3x3 tarp.

Anyone fancy re-homing a fat bearded man?

just ordered a new wire saw and a folding Gerber skeleton handle knife Big Grin

chose the wire saw cause its easier for me to carry pre-SHTF without getting nicked and i can always slide the outer layer of some paracord over it to disguise it a bit.

You lot are putting me to shame. I need to find better ways of using my time.


RE: What have done towards your prep? - Metroyeti - 20 March 2013

Sd your putting us to shame by running this site, keep up the good work.

Not strictly a prep but got an interview for security work at festivals, wich gives me a good excuse to buy a new tent if I get offered work.
