What we should know "Virus" and be doing.

I know we may soon have to restock on a few things, some fresh food items but as yet we have not touched any canned or dry SHTF reserves. We are down a little on prescription meds, these will come by post so no problem.

Some household consumables are down a little, no real problem. I have one or two building projects in mind but these will have to wait until I get some more materials, i should have put some timber in stock, assorted sizes. So for when it is safer I need a list.

Now we are more than three months isolation and with covid cases in steady decline I am thinking of possibly shopping for the odds and ends it’s awkward or inconvenient to get off the internet.

For example it took me two hours looking through boxes to find a half inch tap washer (the very last one and it took two minutes to fit), but things like this can be a pain in the butt if you need one and are in self isolation. Now may the time to go through the nearest hardware store and throw as much useful stuff in the trolley as i can.
