Happy Prepping days
« on: July 14, 2016, 03:28:01 PM »
Well discounting the whole Brexit thing. Things have been going well with the clan, stuff and our preps.

We are off to Cornwall for a week in two weeks in the Camper.

I just picked up two more baofeng uv5r's to fill out the handheld radio stock. This gives us 5ea uv5r's and 8ea bf888s's. Now to get the dual band radio's for each vehicle and the Camper. (Yeah we tend to over prepare)

My 17 year old daughter just asked me to put together an EDC kit for her to supplement her 72hr Bag and other kit.

How cool is it when your teen is clued in?

Oh and my 16yr old son just came in and asked if we could get him a real broadsword for his collection.

Like the best car I ever had, get him a Cutlass.  Broadswords are a bit heavy for EDC.

And pirate eye patch if he wants.

If you need a second magazine, its time to call in air support.

God created Man, Col. Sam Colt made him equal, John Moses Browning turned equality to perfection, Gaston Glock turned perfection into plastic fantastic junk.

Lol...

He has a few different Swords already. Will see if he wants a cutless next though.

FYI, eye patch doesn't need to match anything.

Cornwall is one of MrsMac and my favorite parts of England. The wool products produced there are the best bar none.

I will have to look up the name of the village Gadget, however we stayed in a small village that was awesome. First at a fancy hotel just out of the village where our roof was actually thatched. Then we moved into the village once MrsMac claimed I had a hard time staying to the wrong side/right side of the road after a couple of pints. (The woman is delusional) We stayed above a pub. The pub accommodations were awesome - Complete with a full breakfast.

MrsMac LOVES blood pudding... Me not so much. Although the coffee sucked the tea would grow hair on your chest which is the way I like it.  ;)

Anyhow, MrsMac bought the nicest wool suit there. Jacket & Skirt. We also bought a shit-ton of other fine wool-ins like a blanket, sofa pillow covering's etc. When we arrived at my families home in Edinburgh, all of my relatives scoffed at our purchases in Cornwall, as apparently, Scottish wool is better than English wool  :lmfao:

What ever, we still have it all and it is going strong. Mmmmmmmm, but I do have my dad's kilt, which belonged to his dad and was passed on down through the family since the mid 1800's. It's a bit to small for my figure at the moment BUT it is new as the day it was made.  ;)

Have a GREAT time...Wishing I was there!

Get him the Cutlass!  Every man needs one.  Get one for you too.  Wife and daughter(s)? qualify as fair maidens.  Or raunchy wenches.  Will leave it to you to make the determination.
