    That would be to die for!:D

    technically it's four tins of tuna & a bag of rice, but my heart is in the right place.


    The thing is for all those mentalists here & in the hills of montana, if the !!!!!! really hits the fan it's them & their crazy inbred offspring that will survive, while those of us who mock or are too apathetic to build up even basic supplies are the ones who will suffer & die.
    "Mrs. Pench, you've won the car contest, would you like a triumph spitfire or 3000 in cash?" He smiled.
    Mrs. Pench took the money. "What will you do with it all? Not that it's any of my business," he giggled.

  • But will you be able to afford the ferry fare in a recession? It's a bloody long way to swim!

    Good point.

    Damn I wish I could think of a witty and yet slightly sarcastic reply, but I have thought and thought and have given up!

    Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. The one where you showed us Dithering Dad is a complete liar. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE Forum Team

    It's ok, I don't need a store of food. I got a shotgun and a copy of Looting for Dummies for Christmas.

    Oh, don't eat polar bear liver as it's got a fatal dose of vitamin A in it.

    Living off hob nobs doesn't give you scurvy. Chocolate hob nobs count as vegetables.

    When I see this stuff, I always wonder what the (probably) Chinese factory workers think of us in the west. That we spend hard earned £££ on these strange things that have no useful purpose....not dissing your new toy Scouse...just a late night thought.
