9:59 pm @MuricaPersonifiedAnd wwiii STILL hasn't happened despite his constant pants pissing. [Bros...I am no longer prepping for WW3]

Planting out the veggie patch with potatoes proved a bit of a fizzer 'cos the missus found it easier to use supermarket spuds. It was hurtful, damn hurtful not to have her support.

And I had a large plastic tub full of small"fruit boxes" (juice) that had use-by date of 2020 and when I had some they tasted of cardboard! Very disappointing.

I'm hoping my big plastic (unopened) containers of water are still reasonably ok in a real emergency but I'm resigned to simply dying if war comes to town.

Generally, water goes bad after 6 months in plastic containers. The chemicals leech into the water.

Then I guess it would come down to dying of thirst or taking one's chances with chemically-contaminated water!

The water could still be made safe by distilling it.

They make large stainless steel tanks for storing water. Or buy a pallet of gallon glass jars.
