    Love the chats. I'm actually pretty well prepped for power cuts. 41 years ago I wasn't as well prepared and 9 months later I had a baby. I think you forgot that aspect of much needed preps 😂

    Thanks Leigh. Always worth a recap and a different point of view. Very easy to become complacent. Prepping isn't just for Christmas it's a state of mind. And mine is in a right state!

    Thing is, they had everyone running scared about power cuts LAST winter......so how many people this year will just roll their eyes and ignore the warnings?

    Nice video thank you Leigh. I went camping in October once, a woolly hat is a must for sleeping, so woolly hat, gloves, nice socks and lots a different layers as natural as possible, hot water bottle handy to. You can get glove and sock warmers to. I would love you to makes videos around the camp fire with guests. I really miss David’s live stream on a Sunday night. We need something to get us all together and your it 🤣🤣🤣

    With regard to lanterns, I can understand your concern, they are a slight source of heat too and if used right are quite useful, a smallish light and an even smaller amount of heat overnight are no bad thing. I love lecky lights for their brightness but paraffin lasts a loooooonnnng time if you look after it and for this gangsta has its place. One to watch around pets and kids (like candles) but especially over winter, if the lecky is off for a while and your powerbank is low or out with next to zero chance of recharging then paraffin lamps are ace. They're also very atmospheric too. 😍

    Call me a conformist, but I don't agree that government doesn't have emergency plans in place - otherwise we'd all face many more 'emergencies'. That said, I agree that it's sensible to have personal measures in place like those you suggest.
