Behind a locked door in Barry's house is a room he's been getting ready for the past year.

Driven by uncertainty, he has been stockpiling food, first aid, torches and battery-powered lamps.

"The cost-of-living crisis, power outages, fuel shortages, those things I'm well prepared for now," he says.

On the shelves are at least a dozen boxes of tinned and dried food goods - all carefully labelled and meticulously stored to keep them dry and airtight.

I have the list of those items most likely to be in short supply or even missing for a time .

Coffee , Extra Virgin Oil , all canned goods, figure prominently .
For almost a year I have been adding one or two extra items on to my shopping , but only for storage .
Now I have huge numbers of tinned ham , crab , tuna , salmon etc in a cupboard which was otherwise empty .

I shall happily continue because all of my stored items are top quality brands with a shelf life of several years , if required .
It's a Win - Win and now just part of sensible housekeeping .

Indeed

The reports keep coming that the muzz are still sneaking in weapons
In Germany authorities are turning a blind eye to carloads of Kalashnikovs and rpgs.

France they still find weapons caches

The UK is no different

While civilization is still standing It's good to rotate your stock by eating and replacing
