What have done towards your prep?

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

Oh yeah and supposed to be meeting some dudes from Walker T & W at Causey Arch some time soon for a BBQ

[Metroyeti]

Folk from walker? They off griders or true survivalists from pottery bank? Good luck with the bbq

[NorthernRaider]

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.

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.
