Ah the old I’m not a “prepper” thing. LT come out of the bunker 🤣
While I don’t prepare for the zombie apocalypse I do however take sensible steps in life to be “insurered”
I have breakdown recovery I’m fortunate to have private medical cover,well worth the money given what cancer has done to my family recently.
Given my name on here and my history doing what I did I’ve always taken precautions in life ,what sensible person wouldn’t?
I don’t have a bunker or a bug out location or a stash of ammo but I could live for two week in “lockdown” anyone who can’t ain’t “prepared”
Have to say though there are some serious “preppers” here. You know who you are😉
Right I’m off too count my tins of beans🤣Its not the height of the fall but the sudden stop at the bottom that hurts!!

my missus has so much stuff in the freezer (always does) that I'm sure there are a couple of polar bears living near the botton of it.
and there are quite a large number of tins of beans, so I wouldnt come round here after we've eaten all of those.

That would be classed as "getting low on loo rolls" in our house... Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

There's some stuff in the freezer, otherwise I've got a fair few boxes of 12g cartridges in the cupboard. So either way, we're "prepared"... Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

When I saw the title to this thread I got slightly confused.
Have been the innocent victim of a lock in at at various hostelries in the past but never a lock down at one!

With the less Edwardian licensing hours etc., lock-ins are much rarer I think.
Certainly, our village pub is now one where one begs to be let out at the end of the night rather than pleading for an after-hours pint! Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Off to Sardinia in April to see Atalanta away and EasyJet saying they are monitoring, etc. I’m hoping to get there and back and then self-isolate at home for two weeks as per company advice
Have a lot of friends in Bergamo/Milan area saying a lot of press hype about situation in Italy.
Going to have to get a lot worse before we should panic, see below.....
