i fear he is hors de forage at the moment.

There's a joke there about foraging from Ladies of Negotiable Affection, but I won't make it because, well, I wouldn't put the implementation of it past the individual concerned....

 

[not-bono-ever]

I don’t need to stockpile, as I intend to rob good citizens of their stashes. Far more efficient

Ive stockpiled some sherry.

Manzanilla oloroso and palo cortado on sale at Morrisons. Top quality Lustau shiz.. you cant even get it that much cheaper in Spain!

Cant see the price going down in the next year or two so It's a sure bet.

I'd rather that than be a "whore de Farage" - "the whole things a ghastly nightmare" to quote Billy Connolly.

My Brexit box: The people stockpiling food

A Facebook group called the 48% Preppers, named after the proportion of people who voted to remain in the EU in the 2016 referendum, suggests stockpiling more everyday items. In the group, which has around 1,600 members, a 16-page leaflet called Getting Ready Together is being circulated.

Thought that was satire but no 48% preppers is real!?

it is not satire

part of their prepping includes storing printed ballot forms and ballot boxes in preparation for a sudden referendum

Seems like the right thread for this, only they are imported from the EU. Maybe midges could be harvested, in the manner of krill, to produce a nutritious domestic sludge? Well, at least until Scottish independence.

The relentless march towards making us eat insects continues...

I'd suggest snails* but they're a bit French

*again - Garden snails: the eating thereof

Hundreds buy 'Brexit Box' amid food fears

Meanwhile a "Prepping for Brexit" page on Mumsnet has more than 250 posts with members saying they plan to stock up on everything from medication, toiletries and nappies to hair dye and tobacco.

Urban needs to try harder as we're 33 posts behind Mumsnet.

Rather than stashing bog roll, it may be time to fit a cheap (as little as £15) bidet squirty thing and buy a stash of aloe vera gel - which reminds me ... seeing as aloes are cultivated in Spain.

surely those continental bidet things will be banned after brexit?

 

[gentlegreen]

Indeed - . I may upgrade now while I can so I can have a spare.
