So now,
Yes right now, well today at least - we all go and find a plastic crate with a clip down/water tight lid and pack an emergency box. It should contain (at least a copy of) Important paperwork
1. civil papers eg birth, death, marriage, divorce etc papers
2. the deeds of the ranch (house, unit etc. and any holiday home)
3. insurance papers (home, contents)
4. memory stick with all your digital photos and album with the important family older photos.(or copies)
5. prescription medication or at least a complete list of same (or scripts)
6. and extra special (iconic) nick nacks (or at least a list and photo of same)eg Grandma's brooch/watch etc.
7. copy of car rego and insurance papers (include trailer, caravan etc motor bikes)
8. copy of drivers licence, pension card, other ID (and any other licences)
9. trade papers or Uni qualifications.
10 and not forgetting the backup of a your computer files that include your poetry and the above list of lists.
Personally I am making two stick copies. One to keep in the box and one to hang around my neck.
So I will be busy most of the day getting the above together.
If I think of anything else I will make a re-post in green
.. Ooops, I forgot the Passport!

Zondrae that’s a good list, you left out the part where you panic and take off without the box.

Re: Message from Maureen ...
and what about the dogs favourite tennis ball.
That is a great list Zondrae I am keeping that for future reference and totally taking that idea on board - minus the passport - don't have one... was always fearful if I left the country they might not let me back in.
Cheers

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.
