Preparedness for when

Frugalsod

I would opt for the disposable dust masks as they are cheap and would cover most needs. Unless we have a super volcano eruption the only real risk would be dust from Iceland (country not the store), and that might only be for a few months at most. Though I suspect that if it were severe the cars would need to be protected as well. Dust ingested in the engine could do damage and cost a fortune to repair if it can be.

I have looked into them before, but it can get quite confusing.

You don't look into them. You put your mouth and nose into them.

For looking into, you need goggles.

I'm thinking of something that would be of use during a virus outbreak or volcanic dust situation or what ever might be thrown at us:(

Airborne water droplets are a common mode of virus transmission, so the Warrier masks should be suitable, as they are described as "offering protection from solid and liquid aerosol variants"

Physical contact is another common mode of transmission, so a couple of boxes of examination gloves (vinyl, latex or nitril) would be a worthwhile purchase.

The goggles, masks and gloves would also be of some value, in the event of a nuclear/radiological incident, as they would prevent the entry of alpha and beta particles, into the body.

The gloves would also be useful for 1st Aid use, handling and butchering prey, and for toiletry matters, in the event there was little or no water available, for hygiene purposes.

ETA: If you really want to be prepared for anything, get yourself one of these as well.

Any plans to update the formula for various bottom related medical issues?

I figured periods of constipation would, more or less, balance things out.

Mine came in useful when I had to empty the dog's anal sac :eek:

I'd like to say a big thank you for that P, on behalf of all those FMs, who are currently eating their evening meal.

But we cannot all be constipated to cut TP use? Alcoholics might use more TP even though they save on the food.

Actually you would need strong garden gloves for chopping wood and lugging things about as well as disposables for medical needs. Then a few ordinary washing up gloves for cleaning.

I think there's a lot to be said for a pocket umbrella. I carry one in my hand if I'm going anywhere dodgy. It's every bit as solid as a policeman's truncheon, but they cannot object to me carrying it.

I do this as well. I have a few, and one or the other of them has accompanied me to quite a few countries, and various cities in this one. Never had to use one though, except for the rain of course

You can even colour coordinate them to your outfit
