its here now slowly every time i go into town another shop is shut ,food goes up again and again.
recovery...? iv been looking at lorry driving in london [thinking better weather ill risk living in my car for well payed work] its no better their i was expecting lots of work thats where our tv/news tells us it is.
the more i see the more i think it will be a slow slide to the bottom,more food banks,crime ,cuts in services, less cops ,doctors everything.

every time I go into a larger town there are always lots of empty shops.the only growth seems to be more and more supermarkets.

nothing wrong with potato's, im attempting growing them myself this year but unfortunately i wont have much of a chance to work in my garden if they start conscripting if something kicks off.
well unless i was unfit for service

You could always slice of a couple of toes whilst digging said spuds with your sharpened survivalist spade
