So as the summer lull passes by

[preservefreak]

a well made point, we know we should be getting on with things but the lizard part of our brain is saying "life is good, I know winter is coming but lets deal with that later, enjoy the sun and eat some berries"

Now is a great time to be preparing for winter as no-one is buying wool blankets, thermals and 2nd hand boots, I got 3 double 100% wool blankets a few weeks ago for £1 each as the charity shop needed the space for summer wear.

In a few months time people will be looking for wood and warm clothing so get them now while everyone else is enjoying the sun. You can't prep every day of your life, you have to have days off to enjoy the summer too, but even doing a small thing everyday adds up to a better chance of survival.
