    Disappointed to see this morning's posts have evidently been deleted, but apologies if I broke forum rules.

    I was just trying to get my head around the possible reasons why certain people are doing what they're doing, but although i did think hard before posting, I suppose it could have caused an argument.

    Sorry it upset you Jazee x

    Political correctness in all matters it seems, even when prepping for the unexpected and unpredictable, Oh would that all situations we find ourselves involved in in life were conducted with the same consideration and sensitivity by all participants!

    Whilst browsing the 'MOOC' (Massive Open Online Course) website for courses for my U3A interest groups, I came across this course and thought of you lot!!!
    https://www.mooc-list.com/course/disaster-preparedness-coursera
    There is a course which starts today, but start dates are also planned for the next month or so.......
    I think I might have a go!

    I'll pm you jkO, can't really refer to it on the open forum again as accidentally broke the rules.

    Is anyone making specific plans for a post Brexit UK? I'd be very interested in thoughts as to how life might be and how we're going to make ends meet with the cash we have available now and the lifestyle we might have then. I know it's all only guesswork and conjecture at the moment but it would be an interesting exercise to actually think how life might change and how we might adapt to those changes.

    I think for our family things won't change much except that prices will go up! Unfortunately we're not in a position to grow our own veg etc.
