Well, This Is a Disaster: What to Do When Things Become Rather Inconvenient
The lights are out. The taps have stopped. The phone signal has vanished. The cat has rejected the evacuation plan.
Well, this is a disaster.
This is emergency preparedness for ordinary British households: practical enough to use when something genuinely goes wrong, but sensible enough not to require camouflage, a bunker or six months' worth of tinned peaches.
Inside you'll learn how to:
- assemble a genuinely useful 72-hour household kit
- respond to power cuts, water interruptions, fire, flooding and gas smells
- store food and water safely when normal services stop cooperating
- make the right first decisions during injury, evacuation or communication failure
- plan for medication, children, older relatives, additional needs and pets
- create a one-page emergency plan everyone in the household can actually find and follow
Written with dry British humour and grounded in current UK guidance, it combines entertaining commentary with clear diagrams, illustrated action pages and quick-reference instructions. It is designed to be read in advance, then pulled from the shelf when nobody has time for a reflective essay.
No wilderness heroics. No end-of-the-world fantasies. Just calm, rational preparation for those occasions when everything becomes rather inconvenient.
Read it now while the kettle works. You may be very pleased you did.
