Urban Bug In
So I plan to bug in initially after an event. I live in a victorian terrace close to the centre of town (100k+locals) My street is off one of the main arteries into town.

I have a steel front door (and frame) and 175 micron balistic film on all windows. CCTV covers out front, out back and inside and I have access to it from anywhere as long as my broadband's working. The house alarm rings my mobile when triggered and I just log in to see what's up. If the broadband is down I can still access via wifi within 100m of the house. I could extend this range with an exterior wifi antenna.

The garden has no access other than from the house (there is no alleyway) I am overlooked back and front so all preps bar the waterbutt are in the cellar out of view.

The plan is to keep people away from the front door by barricading the street. The street is 200m long with an exit either end. It would be easy to secure each end of the street with the help of neighbours. (it would be in their interests to keep the madding crowd out) Rioters would be after the easiest targets and so the idea is to move them on.(think London kebab shop owners who successfully kept rioters at bay where the Police couldn't/wouldn't)

Manning the barricades would be a full time job and probably only likely whilst the neighbours were fed and watered. Once they're hungry too then things change. Could I realistically stay put with 3 months of supplies and repell all invaders? Bugging out means having somewhere to bug out to. A small scale or local event could be survived this way but the big one?

Any thoughts greatly received, it's why I signed up.
