I would like to just add this...

I was not proselytising yesterday when I mentioned St. Peters Square and I hope you all understand that. It was a incredibly poignant moment visually that I felt the need to share in these trying times. Freedom of religion is as important to me as financial freedom.
Thank you for all the support however.. it means a lot to me.

several holy sites are down now.. mecca is closed, st petersberg closed. and more that ive heard but not verified.

how long since either has been closed is sobering.. thousand+ years theyve been open afaik. no matter what.

Maybe an unexpected silver lining will be that religious types will realise that their religion doesn't need to be centrally managed. Much like their currency.

Forget it. Religion seems to be a placeholder for a healthy mind. Don't expect sane decisions there Roll Eyes

Hi all

Just checking in to let you all know i am safely tucked up at home. Focusing on growing a vegetable garden and ready to just ride it out. I cant go to a barber so may just end up a hippie with a ponytail.

Peace

Hehe, your nickname will match your style soon

I'm already a beardo too...
But my wife loves it Cool

She says it tickles, down south Grin

Have been baking my own bread for years (thanks Panasonic) and it also makes pizza dough. Since a few years I'm ordering beard flour in 25kg bags. (I put 1/2 in smaller bags in the freezer). I keep graded cheese in the freezer too. Together with canned/frozen vegetables I did shopping every 3rd week and can now stretch that to two months without much effort. Supermarket is fine here but I try to minimize the number of visits anyway.

I'm pasteurizing 3-4 liters of milk from the neighbor farm each evening, and my wife also makes bread rolls using the (preppered) spelt meal i was buying about a month ago.
A good friend of mine parked a lot of fish (zander aka pikeperch and trout) in my freezer last year. He owed me some stuff so he gave it all to me. Mid April the fishing season starts again (trout). I'm set. I dont have a gun, unfortunately, but i started working on a really nice hickory baton.
