No, not anyone i know personally. Hunting not really a big thing where we are but each to their own i suppose. Hunting a fox and killing it for the sake of it not really for me. But if Sainsbury's runs dry? Well i suppose i could pilfer a cow or two. I know where there's a few of them.....
Cow wins over squirrel every time for me.0 -

As an accidental 'rioter' in Grosvenor Square 1968 - I got lost - I would say that there is every chance of a few riots, but not until the summer weather kicks in.
This thing has only just begun, as Karen Carpenter used to say, so there's tremendous scope yet for all kinds of mayhem & pillage, but probably only at localised flashpoints, or in grim city areas. If you are out in the countryside, you should only have the rustlers to worry about, not zombies.
Like !!!!!!, I already have a stash; most of it Sainsbury's Taste the Difference Breakfast Tea, as my local store is in a high pensioner concentration zone, but basmati rice is also worth a punt if you're in Eire.
Forget the shotgun cartridges and focus on hard currency: Glenlivet is nice, but even Crawfords will be easy to shift, come Doomsday. It's a bit like the difference between sovereigns and Krugerrands; largely aesthetic when the world is in turmoil.
As for long term survival foods, I've only found one thing that doesn't taste as if it came from a tin, and that's chilli con carne. Great in theory, yet consume nothing but that and no one will share a bunker with you, should the need arise.....You have been warned.0 -
Pprpprpprprprrprprprrppprprp can you getTesco value Chili con carne ?? I heard the Irish stew is worth a punt ?? No room in the freezer so it's the tinned stuff now.I came in to this world with nothing and I've still got most of it left. :rolleyes:0

Bo, the meat in that is going to be the same grade as dog food...plus odd looking squares of carrot and potato. You'd get more nutrition from a handful of hay.
Actually that is a good idea for a little business, selling high nutrition freezer fair to the Aquatic birds (Loons for the uninitiated).
