If something HUGE was to happen ..

... 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!

After watching the zombie program, I am not so worried about how little food we have in the house (broken digestives, half a box of cheerios and some dubious cheedar); I am more worried that there would be no way that we could board up all the windows in the house in time. (Stupidly have the bi-folding door thing..damn Kevin McLeod)

We would have to spend our lives in the downstairs loo (no window) and quite frankly four of us living in close quarters, fighting over crushed biscuits would be too much to bear.

November 17th bring it on, actually I am looking forward to it if I don't have to spend Christmas with in-laws.

Well, you could eat the eggs. But only during March-September. Because the lazy featherbags don't lay over the winter. You can eat the ducks. They're messy buggers.

I think that's a good point about living in fear of the Russians. I spent the whole of my early teens with my fingers in my ears in case it was a bomb coming over when a plane flew by.

I wonder if that's why I get anxious about these 'scenarios' and others of the same age are similarly anxious?

Goodness knows how scary it must have been in WW2 at times!

Do the ducks lay eggs in winter? If not then i'm out to stock up on hoi sig sauce (sp?) and pancakes

A day probably. I do have access to one very scary looking dog and very cute, but slightly aggressive dog and a sword - so I could come and rob you lot

We also have those weird black water birds with ginormous red feet. They might be moor hens. Not sure if they're edible

My Dad is a Parish Councillor and apparently he and other councillors are key personnel who will be needed to organise society after an emergency so he has been told he will be allowed in the local bunker.

Why are there so many mad people worrying about stockpiling water? We do live in one of the rainiest places on earth, after all, so water shortages are not a concern, at least not in the winter. Just the other day, it rained enough in 2 hours to fill our entire rain barrel to the brim. It's been raining ever since.
[Disclaimer: I live in Scotland]

As for food, I just found out today that I'm a stone heavier than I thought I was (hospital weigh-in, haven't weighed myself in years) so having to survive on a bowl of lentils a day for the next few months would be just what I need right now...

I think i need to but some chickens and goats.

Thats me sorted for milk, cheese, butter, eggs and sunday dinner

I think we will be fine now.

um i meant "buy some". I do not go around butting chikens and goats honest lol

Ah - the LHC - bummer - I forgot that.

I did actually take the kids out of school the first time they switched it on .
Talk about being in a panick.

Wouldn't radioactive rain fall if there was WW3? How could you drink any water?

I think you're meant to fill the bath to the brim and hope for the best if there's WW3.

If there is WW3 we'll all be dead, so don't worry about drinking water okay? Thanks.

Anyone remember threads? the post nuclear war film set in Sheffield. Gave me nightmares. The real way to survive is trust no one, not even that nice old lady from down the road.

On the bath filling, my sister has a walk in shower only, better warn her.

Well the carnivores in my house (DH, DD1, DD2 & the cat) would be OK because I have just made vats of bolognaise and several cottage pies for the freezer.

I would not be so lucky.

But I do have, for some reason, 6 tubs of baking powder. Perhaps I could do something with that.

when is lhc getting turned on - im pissed off at all this tbh as i have just bought 4 new bras and for the firt time in 8 years i have oert looking tits again.

PERT

mmmmm Baking Powder

Usually in these scenarios I start stockpiling dry goods, and would rely on DH to get a gun or, preferably, guns from work(forces) We have 2 garages built into the base of our house- not sure how secure they would be, and a burn (stream) at the bottom of the garden. The woods are full of wildlife, but glad I didn't get my female rabbit neutered now...

I have visions of myself in a biochem hazard suit off down to local Sainsbo's with my gas mask and my gun to do a spot of looting. I think weapons will be absolutely essential for the weekly loot shop.

Oh, have we got an actual date: 17th November? That's inconvenient for me. Any chance of rescheduling?

We have a shotgun and I've got my eye on the pesky deer who are a menace on the road and eat all the young trees.

There is really no point in me doing my amazon christmas shop this week then ??

Don't go making any christmas cakes, either.

at least my tittys look pert.

anyone who says 'tittys' deserves not to survive a zombie attack.
