It Doesen't Take Much.
Check the link guys it just goes to show that it does not take very much to empty the shelves, I think I have finally got my wife on side after seeing this. Can you imagine what would happen with a couple of weeks bad weather.

RE: It Doesen't Take Much.
yes, we lived in Somerset when the "fuel strikes" took place, the shelves in the local supermarket emptied within 48 hours and couldn't be restocked, although the smaller corner shops DID get resupplied because they used smaller lorries and vans.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

RE: It Doesen't Take Much.
I think fuel strike/shortage or a bit of snow like they have in Russia just now could see everything grind to a halt within days, is one of the most likely SHTF situations I could see that happening any winter I don't think it would take that much snow to cause serious probs.
And look at the buying people do because the shops are shut for one day at xmas

RE: It Doesen't Take Much.
i dont think the sheeple even realise the supermarkets have a "just in time" delivery system, just one thing goes wrong and it all comes apart, we are 3 meals away from anarchy.

With to-days floods, there is the possibility that people in the flooded areas will soon be without necessities. Kenneth Eames.
