Just for fun! You mean you aren't prepping for the zombie apocalypse? zzzzom

Seriously though - as much as I like to make fun of the 'doomsday preppers' - some of the advice is useful (some is way over the top too). Here in NZ we prep for earthquakes. We get hundreds every year of course, but most are barely noticeable. The government recommends a minimum of 3 days of food and water supplies be held by every household, but the truth is that we live in a valley with only two roads in/out - one road runs over a 900 metres high hill, and the other runs at the foot of large ranges of hills. It will probably be a month or more before anybody will get either of these roads open after a major earthquake. Nobody talks about it of course, but it doesn't take too much imagination to see what could happen when the 3 days supplies everybody dutifully stockpiled runs out, and resupply is still a month away.

Oh we are prepped for when the earth shakes. Grab bag at the ready with stuff in it that won't be mentioned on here - though perfectly legal...

Already zombia aware, they are here already - waving Palestinian flags LOL

Sod the zombies. I'm preparing for the reign King Salmond and his morons!

Is that a grab bag or a spade to dig yourself in with?

Nah, he'll have a case or three of Buckie as trade goods/bait

[Chuck]

Nae buckie here - just some essentials such as my wee Kabar, charged mobile phone and sundry basics in case it's an outside stay. I think Mrs T said there's 3 full mags and a box of ammo too......................

Not sure what my Scottish counterpart would have - though Buckie is probably a national currency, along with Irn Bru.

Being "Salmond aware" is no bad thing!
