Excuse me, can I have your attention, please? Thank you. Im really sorry to say that we wont be able to go into
the museum. It turns out that theyre having some security issues and they wont be admitting visitors today or
tomorrow. The annoying thing is that when I checked their website this morning I didnt see any information
whatsoever about this. Anyway, I dont see much point in rearranging the whole schedule for the day, so perhaps
we could spend the time walking around this part of town and doing some sightseeing. For those who are interested
in local crafts, I could recommend a few lovely shops nearby

and now for the local sports news. Fans of the local football club will be pleased to hear that their team is not
going to be relegated to the lower league. Before their last match, which took place this afternoon, the club needed
a victory to keep themselves up. The game, which was characterised by neither skill nor determination, ended in a
draw. However, their nearest rival in the league table lost their home game and, therefore, their chance of staying
at this level of the football pyramid. Therefore, it is through sheer good fortune that the local team will continue to
play in the Second Division. It is still up to the fans to decide whether this is something worth celebrating, given
their high expectations of the team at the beginning of the season.

Ah, youre having some coffee. Looking for the milk? Open a new carton from the cupboard.
No, thanks. Actually, Im not using milk any more.
Why?
My colleague, whos a bit of health freak, told me that milk is bad for you.
Thats ridiculous! All the experts say its an important part of our diet. You know, the calcium, vitamin D and
everything.
Not all of them, actually. Ive done my homework and a lot of the research confirms that milk contains an acidic
protein that the body has to fight before it reaches the kidneys. Ironically, the chemicals needed to neutralise the
acidic reaction come from the bones, which makes them weaker.
Im still not convinced. In my view, its not healthy to cut out any food completely. Everything should be eaten in
moderation.
Thats just an excuse for your occasional sweet binge.
Thats not fair!

My family meet on several different occasions and theyre always rather formal events, with my parents giving
endless instructions to me and my sister about how we should dress, how we should behave at the table and so
on. Honestly, I find these gatherings a sheer waste of time and whenever possible, I try to find an excuse not to go.
You know, an important school project or stomach problems usually does the job just right. Unfortunately, my
parents have recently become suspicious of my little alibies and they might insist on me joining them next week to
go and see my aunt for her birthday. Im hoping to catch the flu or something beforehand!

Wypowied 2.
My parents are always telling me how important it is to be on good terms with my relatives and okay, I see the point.
After all, family gatherings are a chance to meet up with my cousins and we always have a good laugh together.
No, it wouldnt be an issue for me if it werent for my parents behaviour before we actually go. We always fall out
over my clothes and make-up and then we sit in the car in a bad mood and everything. But we usually make up on
the way home and everything goes back to normal. Until next time!

Unlike many of my friends, wholl do anything to get out of going to family gatherings, I usually look forward to
these occasions because I like meeting up with my relatives, especially Tessa, my older cousin. In fact, we keep in
touch regularly and shes a kind of role model for me and an agony aunt when I need some advice. Besides, my
parents dont make too much fuss about my clothes, so we hardly ever argue about what I wear at a family
gathering. Well, we did last time, because my mum wanted me to get a haircut before my aunt and uncles
wedding anniversary and I refused to do it.

Wypowied 4.
I always have to attend family gatherings, because my parents wont let me excuse myself. Well, if it werent for my
grandma, my dads mother, I wouldnt really have any reason to complain, because most of my relatives are easygoing and friendly. Shes really nosy and asks me endless questions about my plans for the future. When she isnt
doing that, she sometimes even embarrasses me in front of the others by making a comment about my clothes
or hairdo. So, I usually try to avoid her and get together with my cousin Pete, whos really good fun to be with.

With me in the studio today is Ian Hunter, a member of the American Preppers Network. Hello, Ian.
Hello.
Ian, someone hunting in the forest with a bow and arrows, feeding on forest plants and raw meat and finding
shelter in a cave. Is this a good description of a prepper?
(laughs) While these are useful survival skills that many of our members have, being a prepper is a much wider
concept. Its all about accepting the responsibility for your own or your familys safety, rather than depending on
others to provide for you when hard times arrive. True, many APN members are people who have lived through
a natural disaster and have essential experience. But even those who just follow government guidelines to store
food and water when a hurricane is on the way can be defined as preppers, simply because they want to be
self-reliant.
I see. So, from what youve said, I gather that the preppers movement is mostly concerned with surviving a range
of natural disasters?
That was just an example. Floods, earthquakes and hurricanes have always been part of our lives; indeed,
theyre the most predictable descriptions of what I meant by hard times. But, as preppers, we want to be
prepared for any possible scenario that will change the world as we know it. These scenarios might include
virtually anything a world war, the outburst of some new deadly illness or a complete downfall of the economic
system.
Or alien invasion, total anarchy and the like. Things weve seen in plenty of catastrophic films and the leading
themes of certain computer games. That would suggest that the majority of preppers are young people?
Thats yet another myth about preppers. Were just ordinary people of all ages and with a variety of social
backgrounds, leading ordinary lives, who just spend their free time learning some useful survival skills, pretty
much the same way as other people do sports or learn a language. The problem is that many people either have
a patronising attitude towards preppers or see us as a bunch of insane ex-soldiers who cant find their place in
normal society. Not surprisingly, some of our members do not publicise the fact that theyre prepping.
I see. But doesnt it require a big financial effort to become a prepper? After all, buying all the equipment that
might prove to be useful can be costly.
I hoped Id already explained that. If you already own a four-wheel drive or have taken part in an expensive
survival camp, okay, but these are really perks, not essentials. Actually, prepping often results in simplifying our
lives rather than adding extra costs. The first and most necessary step to becoming a prepper is to realise what
your most important goals should be and then work systematically, but without making a huge commitment in
terms of time or cost, to achieve those goals. Before doing that, it might be worth browsing through some
materials, like the Preppers Journal, to get some ideas about prepping.
Thank you very much, Ian, for being with us today.
Thank you.
