Thought I'd make a thread about Survival and doomsday prepping. My name is on this forum (and in real life, I'll have you know) Doomsdayprepper so I might as well live up to the title.
OK so, with recent events showing the world is becoming more and more unstable, it's wise to prepare for specific scenarios that could threaten you and your family.
For example:
Learning basic survival skills is useful
When it comes to equipment there is a wide range of stuff people feel the need to include in there kits, so I'll just include the most essential stuff.

- A good knife is essential. They dont have to be expensive either, a morakniv companion is £9.99.
- Firestarting equipment is also essential. Firesteels (ferrorocium rods) are excellent, especially the gerber bear grylls one. Also lighters, of course. One really good thing to carry in a bug-out bag is batteries and steel wool.
- Water carrying containers, preferably with an integrated cooking pot.
- A fully stocked first aid kit.
- Water purification stuff. I have a millbank bag which you filter water with, and then you can boil it over a fire or a hexamine stove or something. OASIS Tablets are also good.
- And finally food. I have loads of energy bars always in my cupboards (NAKD, Trek etc) and lots of canned fish (tuna sardines etc) and those things take quite a long time to go off. Vacuum packed food biscuits are ok, but they taste like shit.
- Survival tins are awesome. I have one.
