I bought this from a well known pizza chain the other night, and can report that it was the worst attempt at food that was supposedly fit for human consumption that I have ever encountered. :thumbsdown:  :thumbsdown:

Passed away 28/10/2026. Remembered fondly as Captain Picard in StarTrek TNG, and as Professor Xavier in the X Men movies.

"Make it so."

Vocals not really my cup of decaf, and I suspect Martin has run for cover :)

Annoyingly I had to dump 5 UPS units when clearing out my Spanish flat. Couldn't put them into storage and couldn't ship them to the UK even if I could.

Gas BBQ,
three primus gas stoves + spare canisters,
generator,
two freezers rammed with food,
two kitchen cupboards rammed with bottles & cans,
bottled water,
loo roll,
kitchen roll,...

that's just our normal life.  ???

Oh, & four shotguns, two rifles & an air rifle.

What!! And no tin foil for a hat? ::)

We live in an isolated location.

We regularly get short power cuts, once/twice a year longer ones, worst was 24hrs.

We can get iced/snowed in, worst was four days.

What we have is just common sense given our location.
