RE: What have done towards your prep? - The Ragman - 20 May 2013

I just bought a new LED camping lamp, 12 more bottles of water, 2,500 mixed variety veg seeds including 4 types of beetroot, 2 of cauliflower, 2 of broccoli (love that purple one), 6 colours of carrot and some mixed herb seeds and the complete box set of Allo Allo .... not for the prep, but what's life without a little laughter :-)

I will be interested in that SD, because that was just what I want to do with ours

The solar panels, that is

I'll post an article on it in a few weeks. Kit on way.

A few more tins of fruit and custard for the food storage.

About to go and look at a few plastic greenhouses. Only a small one for now to see what I can grow.

Got a new bicycle for longer distance camping/prepping/scouting trips. argos special. does the job though. also a reduced "2 man dome tent", not the ideal for camping, but will do till i can get a solo. lightweight, tent. http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3323320.htm

Oh, if anyone is interested, http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3321377.htm is a folding cycle, with 26" wheels which are unusual, most folding cycles have 20" wheels, 26" is the normal mountain bike size and is better at going off road, or over bad paths.

I like the look of the bike.


Well no greenhouse but lettuce for the windowsills. We will see how they go

Good price that, thanks! Didn't even think to check Argos for folding bike.

I would like the Montague Paratrooper folding bike, but the missus won't let me buy one Sad


RE: What have done towards your prep? - Metroyeti - 22 May 2013

Beardy that bike looks amazing, but on the pricey side. Just think of how many other things you could buy if you get a cheaper bike


RE: What have done towards your prep? - bigpaul - 22 May 2013

I bought a PAIR of Claude Butler hybrid bikes, 1 year old less than 3 months use, for a tad under £400.
