Only 1 rule.
No c&p posts a mile long, they’re just boring & no one reads them.
Keep it short, sweet, & to the point.

Peace & Love ❤️🇬🇧❤️

You could call your little exchange ‘the remainer barter network’. Will keep you out of trouble while the rest of us crack on with the business of running the country when it returns to our hands - something sadly lacking in recent decades

Never tried sloe gin, but last year's decanted plum gin was pretty fab made into a plum gin cocktail with Cava [hic]

@10degreestostarboard - I love your optimism. I promise faithfully to come on MN and say I was wrong if it all goes swimmingly. Do you make the same promise if it goes tits up?

@prettybird - ooooooo sounds gooooooood.

Absolutely - my only issue will be finding you in your underground lair...

Or are you a ‘surface prepper’? Assuming such has sub genres of course

@10degreestostarboard - nah, in plan sight , me. You'll never spot me because I'll be whining and moaning like everyone else so that I can protect my stuff and feed my family.

@Pretty, you need a bit of teak oil on that table chuck!
Maybe after the bottles are empty though.

I look forward to welcoming Remainers and Leavers from the Brexit Arms alike to an independent Scotland. That is, if they can get through the queues at the frictionless border

Well if you going to remain on the surface be cautious - remainers may seem difficult to distinguish at the moment (shouty, whiney, superior, unable to accept most disagree with them) but take it from me some may well try to steal your stuff when they hear a prepper is knocking about. And You don’t want to run out of baked beans.

Living in a bunker for 6 months isn't all it's cracked up to be.
You need plenty of Vit D tablets.

@prettybird - I'll have an Irish passport. As will my dh and dd. Will you let us in?

@10degreestostarboard - to quote Cory Booker "Bring it"

’Will keep you out of trouble while the rest of us crack on with the business of running the country

Bollocks with you be doing that

Will try sloe gin and cava...or prosecco I suppose

tisIleClerc - we're planning on painting it - a very chic middle class duk egg blue (along with the rose arch, coal garden shed door and rose arch. We just never get round to it only been planning on doing it for 3 years This year's project ended up being moving dh's dad's old greenhouse to our garden before his mum gave it away he's only been dead 7 years

But it does mean we can now add chillis and tomatoes to our garden produce And can get some veg started early to carry us through the "Hungry Month" after 29 March

bellini - you'll both be welcome as long as you bring some sloe gin

Cheers, @prettybird . The coincidence of the hungry months is quite something , isn't it?

@Pretty
There is of course a very fine art to these projects. you mustn't rush them in case you make a mistake, but then need to do it before it rots away completely.
Time for another glass won't hurt it!

Is it time for a wee song yet?

"I am the very model of a modern mumsnet brexiter,
I gobble local produce and I sneer at Lidl's , Exeter.
I'm strong and stable, smooth and calm, anticipating unicorns ,
I tinkly laugh at preppers hoarding foreign salt and peppercorns.
I'm very well acquainted too, with factoids and fake-newsery,
self-doubt and quiet reflection don't apply to special little me.
Regarding politics, I'm simply teeming with a lot of news,
But busy AIBUing re: the matching of smart bags and shoes.

I'm very good at dodging questions and ignoring evidence,
I hope I earn enough to build a tow'ring brexiteery fence.
In short, although my point of view might shaft us up the shexitter,
I am the very model of a modern mumsnet brexiter."

pretty showing off her enviable lifestyle again

Great light hearted news leavers.... turns out I can buy one of DPs meds from India what could go wrong YAAAY!! That's 3 of the 20 tablets a day sorted, just 17 more to go!
