thanks for your comment - read your piece on getting old, i think you won't have to wait long to put those skills to the test so you'll be fine..

cash for the first few days; nothing else will be tradeable at that stage as shops will still have stock but the currency will be deflating first if banks freeze. gold and btc later on. covers all eventualities, though i couldn't agree more about soil, seeds and livestock if possible.

fuel in metal jerry cans will last, though obviously there's a limit to how much can be stored - again i'm thinking of the first 7 days of catastrophe.

they're really making a thing of this coronavirus aren't they? still not convinced by any of it though.
