If you want to be more self sufficient I would suggest "no" to electric cars...get a bicycle instead and you can get past road blocks like in Oxford easier than cars. The road blocks that they want to replace with e-gates. The bike is environmentally friendly. If they want our cities in climate lockdown you need some transport. With the electric car they can turn off your power...a totally useless vehicle.

Reminds me of the war where you see people going everywhere by bicycle. If they "climate lock us down" in our cities and military personnel are manning the e-gates we will be prisoners in our own cities.

Examples of two pressure cookers, essential items if you want to cook dried pulses/beans. If meat is less available and more expensive then we need other protein sources and the dried pulses take too long to cook using the usual method. The red and stainlessness steel Tefal ClipsoMinut Perfect 7.5 litre cooker is £119 from Amazon and the black one is from IKEA at £59.

Collapsible flashlight lantern...they are in Amazon.
