About Me

Hi i'm Kieran

       A reasonably friendly person who has been ambling through life for half a century trying to keep out of the firing line and have as much peace and serenity as is humanly possible. A lot of my make up arises out of me being Irish, left handed and a Taurus a rather heady combination with a few pro's and con's

Pro's

Always loyal and expect others to be the same[disloyalty gets you a red card]
Down to earth, practical and have a simple and straightforward approach to life
Protective of my family & friends
Social & Socialist by nature
Passionate about most things, family, coffee, music, arsenal and leprechauns etc
Extremely resilient, can take a lot of punishment and keep going
In touch with nature [much prefer cycling and camping to cars and hotels]
Self Sufficient, independent emotionally and intellectually [causes problems with the girlies]

True to myself

The Con's [or as I see them more pluses]

Resistance may well be futile but I'm going to do it anyway
Inflexible belief systems
Have never crossed a picket line in my life and never will [regardless of the cost]
Full of Pride don't like others knowing I make mistakes
Suffer fools! not at all
Generous regardless of personal circumstances
Expect my women to be feminine.
Always willing to fight for what I believe in
Never following the herd
In touch with my feminine side [a little to much]

Why am I a Prepper/Survivalist
Growing up as a teenager in Belfast amid an atmosphere of Oppression and Injustice I very quickly got myself Politicised you didn't really have a choice as things where mighty scary a lot of the time. We had power cuts at times, martial law at times, no go areas for the police and army, general strikes and wholesale bombing and murder carried out by all sides. You literally had to stay one step ahead of the posse just to stay alive. For example I went to school with the bravest of the brave Bobby Sands and shared a common experience of wearing our little yellow star [Stella Maris Secondary School] and being chased to and from school by rabid sectarian mobs on a daily basis.

I work but only the minimum number of hours I can which will allow me to pay my bills and a few ££ left over. Ok I can't afford luxury holidays but five days a week are now holidays for me.

I have three fine sons, two of whom live local to me and the third lives with his mum in Co. Kerry. The Boys are all different in their views to my antics Pearce thinks i'm daft, Brendan is very wary of anything I make him to eat in case I've been adding nettles or such like and Declan tucks straight in regardless of ingredients. None of them do any prepping but trust me they know exactly where the rendezvous point is and i'm 100% sure they'll be there.

Occupation at present is as an Holistic Therapist as in Body, Mind & Spirit, Limit myself to a few regular clients a week. Can be found most afternoons either reading or quite possibly asleep in Starbucks armchairs. I attempt Meditation on a daily basis as it keeps me focused on what's important. Devote a fair bit of time helping others overcome their demons. Absolutely love music and have approximately 60,000 albums and counting, though you can't beat gigging and I've had the honour of seeing Bruce Springsteen, Radiohead, Gary Booker, Coldplay, Rolling Stones, Van Morrison, Idlewild, Eric Clapton, Pogues, UK Subs, Suzanne Vega, Lightning Seeds, PJ Harvey, Tanya Donelly, Christy Moore, Ringo Starr, Francis Rossi, Fureys & Davy Arthur, Foster & Allen, Jim Mcann, Divine Comedy, Paul Carrick, Davy Spillane Undertones, Andy Fairweather lowe, Stiff Little Fingers, Sharron Shannon and many more who elude me at the moment.

At the moment I live on the very edge of London High Barnet. Here's an interesting prepper fact High Barnet is the Highest point between London and York and by the time the rising tides reach here the game will be well and truly over. My crib is also only a 50 yard dash from open country and who knows I may be Bugging out through those fields at any time. All you need to know is that what ever happens I will be ready.
