So, Mad Gambler, have you settled on a percentage of your bank now? I think we've covered pretty much everything that can possibly affect your decision. :)

But what will happen to racing, Crash? What will happen to racing?????
Remember - if they still race, we can still buy hot chips and hot dogs. |
Well, I don't know about horse racing but Zoe and I can watch you lot run around like headless chickens and have bets on who will drop dead first, while we cook up a storm [on our abundantly stored gas supply for the barbie] for 3 mths., from our abundant food supply we have been so sensible in organizing beforehand. Toilet paper will be the first thing your supermarket runs out of [if it's open and there is anyone game enough to serve you].
Shotgun cartridges, yep stocked up on those too so don't try to 'visit' :-) If nothing happens [ho ho], we can always donate the supplies to charity or just eat them. Good luck boyo's. |

Crash! Not being half as pessimistic about birdflue as the site you provided suggest, but I though it was only sensible to be prepared for emergencies. Doesn't even take anything as drastic as a cyclone to disrupt power. And without power and water for a couple days, 99% of the people in cities would be in real strife. Cheers |
Duritz, well at least we can get our own back, WE CAN EAT THE HORSES,
actually had some horse meat in the Philippines recently not that bad actually, but I drew the line at the Dog, and the gollied eggs. Crash, surprised that site didn't explain how easy it is to distil dirty water with 2 containers (or even 2 plastic bags) and a piece of tube just with the heat of the Sun. |
2 plastic bags and a tube A?
I tried purify water that had dead cows floating in it many years ago on the side of the fitzroy river in WA when trapped by a flood. I failed miserably. How do you do it PP? |

KV! one plactic bag with dirty water in the sun, tube above water, plactic bag sealed around it. second bag in shade tube inserted, presto! |
And how does it work, then? What's the process that makes it happen?
(Crash - and we thought we were off the topic BEFORE!) |
Water in the house pipes even though they are cut off. Water in the hot water tank if you know how to access that lot. Keep filling the bath until the water is gone [suddenly]. 1 drop of bleach per litre and you can store it for a hell of a long time [in bleach cleaned containers]. Forget food when it hits the head-lines. It will be too late to get any.
The supermarket in Caratha was empty days ago and the hurricane hasn't even hit yet. Imagine a crisis involving a highly contagious killer flu [?] Emergency workers with Tamiflu tablets saving aust.[?] They won't work and nor will anyone [work]. We really should do what NZ has done and advise people to stock up NOW. However the economy there has stopped and is now officially in recession. Perhaps we [our Government] don't want to worry anyone here into stopping their spending like there is no tomorrow. Our economy needs us. 'She'll be right"! :-) |
