    Mental. So backwards in some ways, and their government is so corrupt.

    Day 1: Machine gun time.

    Solved.

    Seriously though, we had this conversation one night in the car when we were baked. The school beside me, St Davids, is essentially the ultimate zombie hideout. The school itself is surrounded by high fencing, and a local Tesco nearby for looted amenities, because the loading bay is facing the entrance of the school. When you get into the school, there is 2 buildings, a gym and the school itself. The school itself is 4 stories, and each window is covered in metal bars. There's also a basement and a roof. The only way to get up to each floor is by the large wide stair cases on the end of each corridor.

    So basically we'll be sorted while you all die.

    What ever your being paid in your current jobs.

    We'll say a dairy farm. It would involve, milking cows, tending to calves, tractor work, fencing, general maintainance, etc

    Then no. Too much effort.

    Depends. At the moment I'm working ~ 40 hours a week, getting about 280 a week after tax. I'll go down to about 20 hours a week after Christmas and it'd be around 130-140.
