Introduction
Hello, my name is Stuart, I live due west of Fort William, Scottish Highlands,... not far from the coast .
Preparing for an emergency is not entirely new to me [ us ], I have certainly been thinking about it for some time, and have been active long enough to put away about 6 months of food,.. the rest is ideas yet to be put into place
I am ex military, 62 yrs old, but very fit, I own three German Shepherds who need many hours walking on the hills, keeping us all fit, my country skills are quiet good and I would feel confident in hunting if I needed to
My dogs would be a big part of any action I would take in an emergency, if I had to move/ fetch/carry they are trained to pull, and or carry packs,..we camp regular just the dogs and I just using the very basics [ no tent ],... The dogs and I call it entertainment,...lol
Looking forward to learning more

Greetings from a busted PC in Co Durham, I think that makes at least 6 active preppers up top of Scotland and the Islands now I think.

RE: Introduction
Welcome from Easter Ross. You stay in a very beautiful part of the country, Highlander.
Just wondering what you do if the weather turns colder than a "three dog night"!
Find a resilient place and way to live, then sit back and watch a momentous period in history unfold.
