    Shades of Y2K

    Back in 99 Nestle were doing a global audit for preparedness,
    the PNG factory passed with flying colours.

    No water

    Riots,

    No worries, routine occurrences up there.

    Now contemplate no Internet for 72 hours, possibly across the globe, so many critical services rely on the assumption it will always be on.
    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    Nothing as comprehensive as the above, but learned the hard way that a week-ender+ Grab-Bag is a sound idea....

    Found myself in hospital at shrt notice (9 days) and had to endure the frustration of 'Distance Glasses', a flattening phone battery, boredom and Noise...

    Mine is a redundant Laptop-bag and has a phone charger/cables, notebook, pen, few $$$, sox/jocks and toiletries, spare reading glasses, light reading, mp3 player/earphones, band-aids and insulation tape.

    Lives near the bedside drawers, which makes it easy for Wife to grab and bring it in.

    -Which saves on the frustration of said spouse bringing in the rrong Noise Cancelling headphones with 1/4" plug.... which don't fit the music player...

    - When you get well past Middle-Age you need to think of these events...

    My bug out bag is essentially my camper trailer and car, they are both basically stocked with basics that would hopefully be enough to get away in nearly any event apart from an EMP.

    Car:

    Lights
    Uhf
    Night vision Monocular (ALDI to the rescue)
    Assorted electrical equipment, chargers inverter etc
    Toolkit inc lighter / matches
    Few bottles of water
    Rain jacket and Towel
    Air Compressor
    Recovery Gear
    GPS
    Lock pick set (originally bought for ****s and giggles but has come in handy a number of times and is really useful for something that cost 15 bucks)
    Usually my Work tool bag (Bosch 18v drill, rattle gun, grinder, light)
    Fire extinguisher, fire blanket and first aid kit

    Camper
    40-60L Water
    2x 65AH batteries with anderson connection to car or solar panel
    Petrol generator (older pull start type)
    Some canned food
    Sleeping Gear
    Radio AM/FM
    Gas Cooker
    Shovel
    Cooking and cleaning equipment

    I am away most weekends. My toiletry bag contains toothpaste, toothbrush, shampoo and conditioner and a brush. My backpack can have a week's clothes stuffed in in a few minutes. The camper already contains a coffee plunger so I just have to chuck the coffee (of course) and some snacks in the fridge and hook up the camper. The hat, jacket and boots live in the Defender. Got enough fuel to get up the hill to safety. Outta here.
