So, the Mayan Long Count Calendar is widely believed to clock-over today.
It's also the Solstice...
AND the last workday before my FAMILY XMAS (Que dramatic spooky music)...
Apart from having to be at work, I wanted to give you all a quick insight into my "it's all hit the fan" load-out.
When the sirens and screams start, this is the kit that I would be strapping on, and similar to what I'd be dishing out to my family to load up and be ready. Fortunately I have quite the collection at the ready.
To be fair, this is my full "there is no help or law coming" gear, not just a "house-on fire, leave for mum's" and I would strive to abide by the laws on my land wherever needed. Wearing swords and the like "without reasonable cause" is frowned on here. In fact, the whole get-up would arouse considerable consternation for LEO's.
That said .... here is a break down of my "end of the world", kit, because I want to be Apocalypse Equipped.....

So there you have it....
There are a few more things that may or may not make it into my kit, and of course, the contents of those pouches and packs, but that's my expected load-out.
EDIT: Stupid predictions ... it's1130am 21/12/12 and STILL no flaming jade jaguars ....
Good to know the end of the world isn't following the sunrise! Pretty cool to see your full kit loadout all in one place. Hope to hear back from you on the 22nd and beyond!
ReplyDeletethanks Dylan! still all kicking here ... no doom-of-man as yet ...
Delete10:42AM here and it's -1 Celsius. A bit warmer than the last few days, but I think we're all gonna make it.
