Would you consider it irrational to be storing food away at the minute?

    Eat all the unemployed people! Quick before they turn into zombies and then you can't eat them!
    I'll fatten up now so I won't need to eat in the future!

    Huge freezer out in the shed full of food, there's also one gas mask and many weapons about my house.

    Is it a clown mask?

    It will be all out warfare soon, eye for eye! I jus hope the scum goes down. I also hope we can survive. It is time to start thinking, it's time to forget about obligations, it's time to stop drinking and open our minds!

    Store canned and dried food that does NOT require cooking.

    Diesel for Generators and Bog roll, these are important, also Pasta and noodles (arent they basicly the same thing?) and anything that has a shelf life of more than 2 years.

    candles and Kerro for lamps is good too.


    to correct an earlier poster - Diesel can be stored relativley safley as it is not readily combustible, so Jerrycans of diesel are safe enough - how many of ye have Diesel home heating with 500L tanks?

    Petrol however needs more safety precautions for storage as it can explode if stored incorectley.


    course nothing beats growing yer own food.

    if you are in an urban siutuation and stuck for space you may want to consider hydroponics, Its not just for growin Pot ya know;)

    Out in the .........shed?.
    Excellent ,good thinking..,great spot to keep all of your supplies if theres food shortages , revolution on the streets and a total breakdown of society as we know it.

    Just to clarify this,the supplies are outside in the shed,and your inside the house with the weapons?.
    What's your address?.

    I agree, Sweden are roflling at us but not just because of our incompetant response to snow. Our country's in tatters and driven into the ground . Their country was at the same junction before and they pulled out and got the job done, no fannying around. We -as in the government and state - won't be doing this. Alls you gots to do is look at their Public vs Private mini war that they've been cultivating.


    Btw, I think the original post was refering to if the country in general faced some sort of apocalypse, possibly brought on by the banks

    first thing you do is fill aload of containers before the water gets shut off,fill the bath,sinks,pots etc
    charge all your batteries for torches etc, makesure you have good locks so no thieves can get into your supplies, also have some fuel to keep you warm.
    Besides all the food stuff those are things to remember....ive put far to much thought into this already now im off to the bunker before the sky falls on my head

    If you're living in an urban area, there's no point entertaining fantasies of what might happen when society breaks down. It wouldn't help in the event.

    However, you can do a few things that will help whether or not society breaks down. For example, get to know your neighbours. Get involved in your local community. We're all in this together, economy or no economy.
