Thanks @Cherryfudge that is a great book. Will download and complete this week

Credit to Mrs CD for drawing my attention to it. Mind you I think I need notice to save up for the amount of ink it would take to print, so I may send off for it instead of printing it. I've sent my DH a copy too. Some sections don't apply to us but the more we can fill in, the better.

This is a really useful book.  I created a Panic File at work years ago and adapted it for home use.  But this has loads more information than mine did, so it's definitely time for an update.  (Also to sort out things like Power of Attorney and a Living Will, which I'm a bit of a round tuit)

Maybe you could save ink by filling in only print off the pages you need and printing those off?

I keep a some phone numbers and instructions on the inside of my kitchen cabinet doors so I can find them easily, especially in an emergency.

Thanks for the info about the book Mrs CD. I'm going to send off for one.

Yes, it would take a lot to print! I'm thinking along the lines of a hard backed notebook, with all the info based on the suggestions in their book.
I've already got a book written out with answers to questions from DD all about my life, so I may just use that one, so everything is together. I think there are lots of ideas for questions on Pinterest.

Soon as I’ve Remembered with Scouts, I’ll crank up the printer. In my household I’m the one who remembers NI numbers & while the lads could find the file, kinder & quicker to have a book.

I gather the price of cocoa beans has gone up & it seems possible chocolate may become more expensive. I will not panic, but I will be laying in seasonal supplies promptly & using such discounts as are offered.

Pretty sure you clever people do this but just in case 
When jar candles are finished I always chip the remaining wax from sides and put in a bag to use as wax melts
