What have done towards your prep?

[Pete Grey]

With the weather getting a little warmer we will soon be starting to go to the odd car boot sale, to look for pre digital age technology, in other words old stuff, still useful some as new that people have thrown out and replaced with flash looking plastic tat.

The first thing we want are a couple of clocks, wind up clocks that we all used to have on the mantle shelf or even wind up alarm clocks.

Then i will look for old tools, my father was a carpenter so i have a large number of wood working tools but if i can find a hand grind stone that would be good.

Axes and knives are always useful, last year i found a WW1 remington bayonet. On the bric-a-brac stalls you can occasionally find silverware for pennies, silver price low at the moment but clean it up and keep it for barter in the future.

Lots of possibilities, there could be a bargain on every stall, this is how i got a midland CB radio for £5, we just need a sunny weekend.
