RE: What have done towards your prep? - BeardyMan - 4 April 2013

Been "stockpiling" recently in view of not having a job. Well, I got a job (same office, but new organisation AND I hobbled the fuckers for a pay rise) so now I'm going to concentrate on food again rather than sharp pointy things Smile

Maybe some chickens, depends if the dog will try to eat them or not...

ive managed to find a great little book today, my OH bought me it from a second hand shop for £2
it fits perfectly in my pocket and comes with full descriptions of plants in England and europe that have health properties.
considering the one I was going to buy was over £30 and a big hardback thing. this little one that fits in my pocket permanently is a lot better and a lot cheaper.
its even got excellent pictures of each plant including the individual parts.

Herbs and healing plants of Britain and Europe by Dieter Podlech (Collins nature guide)

for once it was actually worth the walk into town lol

Sounds perfect - must add that to my Amazon wishlist - not that the wife ever looks at it!!

only tyhing missing is a little page for notes, but I can easily stick those inbetween individual pages as we find some of the plants on our walks.
little notes of where each plant can be found locally, that sort of thing.
