Good point!
For me, power-outage, food shortage, temporary freezing of bank accounts and/or failure of ATMs, lack of road fuel (although less of an issue for us now). Also (a new one for us) - small-scale theft and security breaches (e.g. people gathering firewood in the woodland, theft of oil from the heating oil tank, etc.)
Find a resilient place and way to live, then sit back and watch a momentous period in history unfold.
