If something HUGE was to happen ..

[MaDuggar]

... how long could you survive with what you have in your house right now?

Do you have any tins/bottled water etc put away in case of a emergency?

Have been frealing myself out reading some wacky conspiray sites (all baging on about something huge happeneing in the next 2 weeks) - Im not be;lieveing it, but it has made me think that one day there could be an event and I probably would only last a week with my store cupboard!

not even a week here

heigh ho

Id have to live on custard and chicke peas :(

We could probably make it until next Friday.

So what's supposed to be happening then within the next two weeks then?

gah added an extra 'then'.

I'll be so pissed off if I've missed the memo about an impending apocolypse.

yes, do tell us what could be happening. I should go food shopping tomorrow really and need to know if i should buy extra!

The alcohol and toilet tissue would be an issue

Seriously though, I have never given this a second though.

Could probably live out of the store cupboard for quite a while (I mean we'd be eating stuff like boiled barley and dog food, but we'd live) I Don't have bottled water stored up. (very old can of lager in fridge)

If things got really bad, I'd have to eat DH, but he's stringy and has no fat on him, so wouldn't last long.

I dont actually know whats supposed to happen, I dont understand web bot tipping points or anything! Its all conspiracy talk so I wouldnt worry. Obamama going to India & the like seems to have freaked people out.

Oh I must stock up on vodka! Have plenty of bog roll left over from Halloween.

not very long at all- have had a lean month due to huge utility billas at start of month.
Possibly 3 days? tops.

This is what I was reading ...must have been bored

About a week if we're lucky, although do have 8 tubs of Ben & Jerrys so I'll be ok

Unless the freezer was off!

Could probably make it last until next Monday, with a few days of baked beans and tinned soup.
Ugh.
Big food shop tomorrow then, you have me all worried.

Hopefully the zombie fighting mnetters will come back on and share their nuggets of wisdom

That was a funny thread

And to answer the question, we will barely last until the food shop this weekend. DH is currently on way home from work with a take away [wink)

D'oh

8 tubs of Ben and Jerry! Wow, sounds like my idea of heaven! I only buy them when they are on special offer unfortunately.

I think we have enough food, maybe for a month if we all ate small amounts :)

I would apply lateral thinking and use the three tins of baked beans under my sink to bludgeon the zombie hordes and carpaccio them to sustain us.

sorted.

[ then i would remain indoors]]

oops

Our water goes off immediately mains pressure drops. With the bottled water we have in we could last about 5 days before we died of thirst.

If we had water we could last 4 weeks if we ate our hens and cockerel.

Obama is going to India, paving the way for aliens to arrive during the Leonid meteor shower, land in the middle of Yellowstone and set a bomb, thus causing Yellowstone to errupt.

I think that covered all bases. And here? About 3 days, but only if it rains and I can put a bucket in the lobby to catch water

I'd have to eat them ALL straight away if it looked like the freezer was off

lastmelon I only buy them on special offer too, they are on special in... 2 for £3 at the moment, hence the reason I have 8, although this is the 2nd lot of 8 we have bought

We'd be Ok for food, on short rations, for a week or so, although fussy eaters would be in trouble

Water would be a big problem though.

Wouldn't matter though. As I don't have a gun, someone bigger and stronger would come and take the food. Desperate times make people do desperate things...

SSS - you have covered all points, well done
