Re: safe areas in the UK?
Outside of the UK, I would Choose Ireland.
BTW Mountain/Wilderness in UK is where you FIND the Militery before you all go stomping up to Scotland. Plus if somthing bad happens around me I don't think that I would want to run Anyway. I'd be far more interested in using my capacity's in other ways. Like rebuilding and regrouping people, in the chaos, nothing will be-fall me that isnt ment too. Looking at good places to make a stand. Building strong Comunitys. As far as hiding goes its Much easyier to hide in plain site. One airplane with infra-red or thermal imaging would Spot people out in the sticks, so easyly. |

Re: safe areas in the UK?
These are indeed great points to ponder.
I maybe in danger of sounding like a scratched record, but instead of looking at things from the point of view of fear of coming events, we should be making every conscious effort to create radiant zones where we are by helping people understand what is happening and why. Also we should have a fallback plan for want of a better word, we need to have a 'safe area', a radiant zone community that we are helping to create, we may not every decide to live there full-time, but we could be effort into helping those that choose to create these areas even if they don't benefit you personally. Remember that this is not about being service to self, it's about realising that we are all in this together and some of us are not able to do this without the help, sometimes alot of help from others. Sorry if that sounded like a Monday morning rant. Peace Jay |

Re: safe areas in the UK?
Just a thought. If a nuclear power station has melt down or a nuclear bomb goes off. It depends on the strength and direction of the wind at that time. If your down wind you will get the fall out and this area will be contaminated for some time, if how ever you are up wind you will not get so much fall out. I think the key is to have a few options and go with what is best at the time. Dont put all your eggs in one basket so to speak.
Just like to add a note. There is a nuclear power plant in bradwell essex. This is one river up from the mouth of the Thames. So with an easterly wind quite common this would blow across most of essex. Stef Last edited by chelmostef; 09-22-2008 at 03:05 PM. |

Re: safe areas in the UK?
safe from what though ???
it might be a good idea to classify the threats and list the possible safe areas accordingly .. Nuclear attack .. safe areas unknown because it depends where the nukes land and the prevailing winds etc .. Floods and rising sea level .. anywhere high and inland .. Civil Unrest - probably the country side .. places like Devon / Cornwall - remote areas ? Just my thoughts .. I think there are no really ' safe ' places in the UK and we should just move when we feel our intuition nudging is IMO |

Re: safe areas in the UK?
It is naturally good to think about and plan directions to go in ''worse case scenarios'' and i think this should be done. In my situation living in devon u could say the main threat down here would be flooding and severe wetness....however i am a firm believer in trusting our intuitional instinct and gut feeling and i have followed this way of thought all my life and truly believe it holds the most honest and loving path for me.
All of the southwest, all of the UK, all of the northern hemisphere becoming submerged, frozen or completely nuked just does not resonate within me. I am all to aware of the possibilities and u could say i only believe what i want to believe but surely isnt that how it works. I think everyone should truly listen to themselves and know that they will make the right decision when the time is right and we will all be where we need to be when the time calls for it. A decision based of love. Be aware but dont be scared of these times... peace bananaman |

Re: safe areas in the UK?
totally agree Bananaman - I think the first thing in making brits safe would be the fall of the present govt .. seriously .. and a fall so far fr all those slimey labour politicaINAS THAT they NEVER ever get back into power .. the present people i mean .. like jack straw .. etc etc and miiliband .. yugh ..
so part of safe gaurding is the deciisons we make as a country and id likle our country to revolt and bootg the govt out |

Re: safe areas in the UK?
Hmmm, some interesting responses here, so I'll add my thoughts.
Unless it comes completely out of the blue all the nuclear power stations will be run down and made 'safe' before the controllers 'leave the building' and turn off the lights. These reactors in the UK are mostly by the coast except for a few that are by large amounts of water (for cooling). I wouldn't worrry too much about those. I would be more concerned about the reactions of all of the people who didn't see it coming who will be panicked and start looting etc. Towns and cities won't be nice places to be! Anywhere you might want to run to will have to be close unless you make a break for it before the military close down all the roads and declare a dusk to dawn curfew and send up helicopters with FLIR to track down the runners. Make no mistake, if the balloon goes up martial law will come into effect very quickly and anyone caught is in deep trouble. There are MOD places everywhere (2 within 9 miles of here) and the army would be on the streets in no time. If you can get away then go to the nearest safest high ground with spring water. I'd love to get to the highlands or the lake district but being on junction 10 of the M42 I know from my own experience in the military that I would never make it, even on my own. I'll be trying to keep a family alive. One area that hasn't been mentioned yet is the peak district which is about 40 or so miles due north of here (Tamworth). I learnt TM in the 80s and worked for the organisation so that I could learn the siddhi techniques without spending money. I stayed at a place in the Dane valley near Macclesfield and I know the area quite well as I spent my days off walking in the countryside. There is natural shelter there (it was used during WW2 by the locals) and an abundance of spring water as well as sources of food. So, pick a place or places close by, get the OS maps and a good compass and learn how to use them (day and night), travel light and go to ground. This is a short term measure. Long term if it goes down like this we won't survive anyway but at least you can get away from the horrors of mass panic and everything else that disgusts me about society these days. Hope (and pray if you like) for the best but plan for the worst. "Chance favours the prepared mind." All the best to everyone, Kev |

Re: safe areas in the UK?
safe areas in the uk - doubt it
not meaning to be negative here, but if even a small portion of the population moved north into scotland, how could the land provide food(most inportant) the uk imports most of our food, so before long there would be all hell breaking loose,most of the land up here has been managed for eons & cant provide enough even for the local populations, the land would be stripped bare of all its resourses within a short time. i heard somewhere that when hunger sets in a person would steal food in about 2 - 3 days & kill for it within 7 days...not gd news if your trying to relocate whilst the masses are hungry. if everybody decides to head north it would most likley be that the locals would survive as they know the land & they would want to protect it......talk about the caveman days lol my advise would be to stay put for as long as you could(even in large urban areas) keep your heads down & hope that it passes your front door. |

I missed that one, my apologies. You're absolutely correct of course and I know this now having been here for a couple of years now. Given all the censored and doctored news in the UK during the "troubles" however it's not surprising that I grew up thinking otherwise. Coming over here was just one of many eye openers I've had. |

Re: safe areas in the UK?
Stay well away from the Brecon Beacons is my advice. Theres some weird and strange 'things' floating around the sennybridge training area in peace time, so God alone knows what will be up in the skies during any 'disturbances' or events.
Stick to central or Northern Wales for a hide away. However, i'm happy sourcing out a Northern Scotland hide away. |
