maqroll Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Either through war, disease, climate change, lack of water and arable land, overpopulation, Villa win a match, you name it...what would be your strategy to survive and even prosper if you had six months to prepare?

chrisp65 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I'd start off nice enough. I'd model myself on Oddball. if the petrol ran out before me and my little tank resolved the situation, then I'd have to go a bit more Ronin (you may be aware of this character Maq!!) after that, I guess end of days stuff you revert to your inner Heston but in all honesty, I've not planned it out that much, I just don't think we're going to win a game ----- In the event of war, I'll build a den under the stairs in the event of zombie apocalypse, I'll live upstairs and barricade the hall lack of water and failed crops I simply don't see as an issue, we have a Sainsbury at the end of the road 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Twitter always has all the answers so it depends if I'd be able to get access to it ... if not then as per the other thread , I'll aim to be taken out in the first wave of the apocalypse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dAVe80 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 North Yorkshire is where I'm heading. Tan Hill has always been my zombie apocalypse place of choice, so I imagine it'll be fine for any other kind of apocalypse too. Lots of green fields growing crops, lots of sheep for food and wool, and the highest pub in the UK, where I can make base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I understand the reasoning. I would see it as more of a challenge. How long I can survive. I would welcome a zombie apocolypse tomorrow. My life is quite empty at the minute . My survival strategy at heart is solice. It's not the disease you have to be mindful of, it is your fellow man.

Your talking to the man whose solution to putting a doorbell chime back up and lacking the skills to use a drill , opted for Blu tack though to be fair it was still on the wall when I sold the house a few years later maybe ill I'll revise my answer , give me a boot full of blu tack and bring it on zombies Edited September 28, 2016 by tonyh29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My current doorbell is secured with blu tac. It's been there for months, I actually press my own doorbell on the way in to the house now, I'm so impressed with it. 28 minutes ago, dAVe80 said: North Yorkshire is where I'm heading.

Just the three of us holed up in a pub, you, me and Mooney. Nothing to sustain us but pork scratchings and a large box of reggae records.

mjmooney Posted September 28, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted September 28, 2016 I was on board until you mentioned the reggae. I'll be outside with the zombies. Good band, The Zombies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always followed the advice of the Government, from the 1980s. I've painted all my windows white, and I crouch beneath the kitchen table with a colander on my head. It's never failed yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It came with a sticky velcro pad that stuck the doorbell to the doorframe. job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but I sift my position from time to time. Doorbell's no problem, I had the chime blutacked to the colander. Professional job.
