Making sure that you do before November 3 may prove to be a very 'lucky' break....
This is likely to have a knock-on effect leading to a crash, which may be the 10 days of darkness and the closed banks that have been hinted at(what do people do when their cards stop working? I suspect the stealing of food will start after 2-3 days.....), and 11.3.................. when too many things line up.....
Don't forget toilet paper. Hate to see folks have to use their hands like our forefathers did ten thousand years ago...... The crash will hit hard, but as long as you are prepared for a couple of weeks of no electricity, you should be just fine.
Installed a bidet this past weekend. Maybe I was nudged to do so for a reason.
Heated model?
