Prepared for a disaster?

So has the short damp cold days got you down? Summer is not to far away. We'll sort of. If you are busy it will be here in no time. So the key is to stay busy. That is the real challenge with the short days.

Here is a short list of idea's. This is actually really important. Take out your emergency pack. You know the one you are supposed to grab on the way out the door in the event of an emergency, or disaster.

Don't do like I have and........we'll, I know where it is.  A natural disaster could happen in a without a moments notice. So we all ( including me) should be always prepared. Ok we get that. Now is a good time to do that. Long slow evenings.

Okay, so go get off your bum and get it out. If you don't have one, shame on you. Do your research on what you need and put it together.  Here is a couple web sites you could use to help you put one together:
