Do you have an emergency go bag?

[Major Fallout]

My other half thinks its strange that I have a go bag, she thinks its so I can do a runner from her but it has stuff for us both in it.

I have always had one because of the time I spent on boats, and the random emergencies that have happened around me in the past.

If you don't know what one is, its a small bag full of useful stuff that you might need in an emergency. I keep it in the house and just forget about it.

In mine I keep:

Duck tape.
100ft of paracord.
2 t-sts.
4 socks.
Mult tool.
Flares.
£500.
Torch.
Waterproof matches + bit of rubber inner tube for waterproof kindling.
Pen pencil and paper.
Lock picks.
Small FM radio + batterys.
Hip-flask with whisky 50% so it can burn as well.
Super glue.
Spoon.
Sweets and chocolate.
Tiny water filter.

So am I just a paranoid idiot or do you keep a go bag, if so what do you have in yours?

If you live in the UK, I'd say you were a bit strange too. Sorry.

Won't it all get spoilt with these?

[boyse7en]

Do you keep it in the cellar under your house, alongside a year's worth of tinned food, a chemical toilet and an M-16?

[Major Fallout]

Haha ment T-shirts sorry.

[Butter Face]

Yeah it's weird.

Sorry.



Sounds like a murder kit too BTW That's why she's worried.

You're a 'prepper'

Sounds like a good thing to have, once the zombies rise you'll survive while we'll all fancy having brains for tea.

You need zombie weapons too.

No I inhaled some radium by accident once.

Hmmm..... I think that unless you are a member of a secret service or being hunted by some serious undesirables that probably qualifies you as being a nutter!

[Muzzer79]

You have £500 in a bag that you "just forget about"?

What possible emergency could entail you running for said bag and it's contents?

If you need cash, I can understand having a bit in the house but not that I would just "forget about"

You are Sheldon AICMFP!

[SplatSpeed]

no tin foil hats?

[blindswelledrat]

I hope in one of the side pockets you keep a decent alibi

[ascayman]

Your wife found your rape kit didn't she? now you're trying to blag your way your of it.

[Lynchie999]

WTF!

edit : the only sensible choice is the whisky.. not to burn though..

Major, judging by your post in the nearly died thread and now this one, I'd guess you've been nuts almost your entire life?

[Lotus Notes]

I wouldn't tell anyone about this if I were you..
