Trial Bug out or in

[The Ragman]

I test my Bug out skills every month when I'm doing my field studies and can be out for between a day upto 2 weeks and so far so good, as it gives me a chance to test out equip and skills in the differing seasons, but I always would prefer to bug in and have tested as far as family life allows and it went ok and in a pinch I know for a minor short term bug in things would be ok we could do a month or so before feeling the effect and having to tighten our belts.

It was a fun mini project for the 6 week hols to keep the kids entertained for a week or so mucking around putting up tents indoors and trying out various cooking ideas and recipes which helped me refine my recipe book for my regular camping trips and change how I had my BOB packed to make my loo rolls easier to access :-)
