Not TEOTWAWKI but basic home preparations for you and your family. Prolonged power (gas or electric or gasoil) outages. Water? We saw the problems experienced in NI a few weeks ago. Its a different ball game to a few days away in the countryside. Mainly because you probably have more people (maybe young and old or infirm) to look after.
Everyman and his dog will have bought up all the meths, wood, water, bottled gas and the supermarkets empty rapidly - we witness that here during a bit of snow. Without having a gung-ho apocalyptic survivalist mentality it does no harm to prepare your home for an event where you are effectively able to live off grid with your family for anything from a few hours to several weeks.
There is a fair bit of crossover between the bushcraft and home survival skills IMO, which is why i have an interest in both.
My family reckon on being able to be off the grid for 2 weeks comfortably and 3 weeks at a not-so-comfortable push, with water the biggest issue at that stage.
What do others think?
