as it an island, you will have to bring everything you need..from food upwards..in by boat, thats the one thing that puts me off islands, also if the island is overrun by raiders/scavengers/whatever you call them there is no where to run.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

scavenging is my plan though
i mean i'll have minimal stores, but i'm deffo not stockpiling anything. if the worst comes to the worst, your stores will run out, and you'll have to start scavenging

RE: What have done towards your prep?
the thing about having stores is...yes-eventually they will run out but, having a food store enables you to keep your head down whilst its all mayhem and WROL outside.

A woodlore 30th anniversary mora, some Grandpa's Pine Tar Soap, a crossbow, a led lenser H7 head torch, some shit from poundland, some hemp beer (lovely!), and a hand made MLL knife on BCUK. I may need somewhere to bug out to, especially when the wife finds out about the MLL!! Anyone got room for a hammock in their garden?
Oh, and a new shirt.
And a DD 3x3 tarp.
Anyone fancy re-homing a fat bearded man?

RE: What have done towards your prep?
just ordered a new wire saw and a folding Gerber skeleton handle knife
chose the wire saw cause its easier for me to carry pre-SHTF without getting nicked and i can always slide the outer layer of some paracord over it to disguise it a bit.
Winter is coming

RE: What have done towards your prep?
Sd your putting us to shame by running this site, keep up the good work.
Not strictly a prep but got an interview for security work at festivals, wich gives me a good excuse to buy a new tent if I get offered work.
