SHTF

Ive blogged a few time about this, I don't remember exactly what I have covered before. I know that I am not fully prepared yet but I keep going, keep slogging along.

Its not easy prepping when your OH doesn't understand why you are, I've tried to discuss it with him a few times but his upbringing is such that he has no worries about future events.

And future events are starting to slot into place already.


I dont want to be a scare monger, I am not really concerned persay about the recent news coverage of the Ebola outbreak, but my preps are not yet up to that type of disaster. I am just starting out - have been starting out for the past 2 years. 

I get things as and when I can and I am currently getting ready for the loss of income. 

Yes yes yes I live in the UK where we can fall back on the welfare state and claim Jobseekers Allowance but I would rather not return to that status.  

After that I will focus more on local disasters, ie flood, snow, service failure.  I am not nearly ready to start planning pandemic! 

I don't live week to week when it comes to food, putting a bit of what we like away each shopping trip, but just recently I have had to use a few of my supplies when my income was cut by over 2/3 rds and then the rent was messed up by the council and we became £2000 in debt overnight.  We also had a big scare when the MOT was due and found out it had run out 2 months earlier than we thought!
