Two emergency bags ready to go. One for Paul, one for me.
We spread our collection of items out on the floor, and cached our supplies into two equal loads.

For those of you interested to know, I listed what’s in our bags down below.
One thing I thought would be good to do, was to write down instructions of, in this case, how to use fire sticks. They’re simple enough to use, but in times of panic and chaos, I think reading clear instructions would be something soothing to do.
Well, here’s the list, so far:
-Set of clean clothes
-Medical goods
-Toiletary; tooth brush, floss, sun block lotion, etc.
-My glasses
-Masks and rubber gloves
-Toilet paper
-Bandanas
-Food; dried fruit, powdered milk, nuts, tins, biscuits, etc.
-Bottles of water and water purifier that includes Ziploc bags. (You fill bags with dirty water, leave them out in the sun for a while. It disinfects germs and pathogens)
-Sleeping bag, and pads (bit of a luxury)
-Tent
-Space blankets (thin silver sheets)
-Batteries
-photo ID
-Loose money
-Torches (flash lights)
-Fire maker; fire sticks, lighters, matches, flint.
-Duct tape (good for lots of things)
-Map
-List of phone numbers and addresses
-Copy of car key
Shoes and big black rubbish bags (good for collecting water, raincoat, shelter, etc) are in the car.
Mm, have we forgotten anything? Oh yes yes, the electric lint remover.
