Does this make sense?

NOT owning your own house puts a limitation on just how much we can prep, for instance: we are ALL electric, Housing Association have just replaced the (economy 7) storage heaters with....more storage heaters! equally crap and equally useless, but we have our own heating(electric) which is more efficient and cheaper so we use that instead. i asked HA when we moved in if i could install a log burner-at my own expense- but the answer was an emphatic NO, so we have a log burner stored in the garage and a small stock of logs(several dustbins full) and kindling "just in case", we also have a camping stove and a rocket stove for backup, we also have a portable gas heater and a couple of cylinders for heating- not really supposed to have these either under our tenancy but what the hell! along with the usual candles, lanterns and torches, also sleeping bags and throws. i long for the day when our numbers come up on the lotto!!
