RE: What have done towards your prep? - Scythe13 - 5 June 2013
Got a JP Accelerator (it's a 5 or 6, can't remember which), an AutoMag Mini, and an AutoCocker. The AC has been revamped and done up FAR beyond standard. Had it all upgraded as my trials gun for Nexus. Did well, but made a stupid mistake of not tucking when reloading, so didn't make the team :-(

Ah, I see. That's a speedball gun (well, that's what I call 'em anyway) I prefer my mil-sim ones. What hopper you use with it?
I'm still hankering for a twin barrel A5 with the apex barrel and e-grip trigger

Got permission to use my physotherapists fields out the back of his house for archery practice with my family ( provided I teach his kids)
Got invited to a doofah to teach a team of Laser questers ????? ( nup nor have I ) some basic infantry tactics and they are going to pay me to do it !!!!
Got an invite to meet up with some folks i have not seen for 10 years near Minehead thats a nice drive if I can find time late summer.
Finnaly found some 100 watt equivelent LE bulbs for my garage at a reasonable price £3.80 at Tesco.
Oh yeah and supposed to be meeting some dudes from Walker T & W at Causey Arch some time soon for a BBQ
RE: What have done towards your prep? - Metroyeti - 5 June 2013
Folk from walker? They off griders or true survivalists from pottery bank? Good luck with the bbq
RE: What have done towards your prep? - NorthernRaider - 5 June 2013
IIRC they are some nice chaps I helped change a tyre on a van they had , it got a puncture but had no spare so I loaned em mine. I think they are sort of bushcrafters they use the area around causey arch for a bit of occasional field craft. The BBQ is my reward for helping them get home.

RE: What have done towards your prep? - NorthernRaider - 5 June 2013
I'm starting to think ineed to build a propper woodstore, cos I read someplace that ideally ( hah!!) we should keep around four cords of fire wood in case of a prolonged winter, jeez have you seen how much wood goes into ONE cord !!! 8ft by 4ft by 4 ft is one cord near as dammit. my garage is full just abouts, I've got three one ton bags of timber in my conservatory, the garden store is full of kindling and theres a few logs in the garden ontop of the bottles of propane I have stored. Man its so easy to underestimated what is needed.
