How To Build An Earthquake Survival Kit

Survival kits come in many shapes and sizes. Freeze dried foods are easy - just mix some warm water (or cold works too - although a main course meal may not be as tasty cold) to rehydrate and then eat it.

Think about the list above and add the additional items that suit your particular situation. If it rattles around a bit, you can always stuff an extra survival bag, rubble sack or similar in between the mess tin and pouch to keep it all tight.
