You would only be reluctant untill you got really hungry, then when you realise a hungry, tired and weakening survivalist is just another dying sheeple you will have that door open in an instant.
All the tools I have tagged for prepping and survival use I sprayed blue and they are just mixed in with the rest of the tools in the van and garage, So when things get worrisome I can just tell the brat to go and round up everything painted blue from the garage.,
I am not reluctant at all. I would be straight over to the local farm supplies place first off if anything happened, but I am just wary of having all the tools in one bag prior to that, they are all ready to go and grab, but for now, they are with the rest of my tools and look nothing more than part of my tool kit, rather than looking like a breaking and entering kit.
I have to say, I like the idea of painting them a different colour, that makes perfect sense.
I am already drawing up lists of local stores, I knew where everything was in Aberystwyth, it's going to take time to build up a picture of the area I now live in, it's much much bigger for starters and ten miles south of us is very industrialised, but a mile north it's complete wilderness.
get yourself a map of your area..OS is best, and mark on it all the "places of interest"..that way you dont forget where stuff is.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.
