Preparedness for when

My point precisely!:T

I have come to realise recently that there is a certain sort of "sad face" that is one of the variants of "Person concerned is HARD, super-hard type of person - and not normal imo". I know I'm biased - as I don't like hard people personally...

Putin has precisely that "sorta sad = super HARD/etc" type face. I honestly doubt there is a scrap of empathy/weakness/inefficiency in him - I'm sorry to say. I keep looking (and hoping) at every photo of him I see....but I very much regret I've never spotted any trace of anything else yet....I'd settle for evidence of any one of those 3 human traits in him personally. However I cant spot any sign whatsoever of any of them.

For those of you wanting a Kelly Kettle they are clearing out the stocks of the old Stainless steel riveted version of the Trekker (0.57L) and they are throwing in a Hobo stove for free (normally £8.80) as well for £45.95. I decided that was too good a deal and bought one as well as a Stainless Steel Base camp ultimate kit.

Went back to dentist again today, she says it's a dry socket+ infection. Got more antiBs. Was thinking in the car what on earth life is going to be when we have no antibiotics any more. I've been in awful pain for a week, honestly worse than childbirth. What on earth did people do in the past?

Indeed. On forums you sometimes encounter people with a romantic notion of going back to nature and almost hoping for the global disaster to bring it about. It's usually me who says 'What? Without the dentistry?' :eek:

I have no desire to go back to some imaginary arcadian ye olden days. And I have an entirely unreasonable fondness for my most excellent dentist and wouldn't want to be without his experise.

When yer teef hurt, life is miserable.

I am definitely not one for the completely back to nature bit. Though I
do see significant merits in opting to live life as eco friendly as possible. Then if worst things do happen you are a good way towards a back to nature lifestyle. Personally I am not hoping for a disaster but am planning to be ready for it should it ever happen.

Though I do think that we have become too reliant on expensive solutions for many of our daily needs. So to get greener and save money I am looking at switching over as much as possible to DIY cleaners.

Let's ALL hope that total breakdown never happens BUT if it should we're all in a better position both in terms of physical preps and mental attitude to fare much better than most folks aren't we?
