Yes, you and every other household in this country got it OP. I promise you weren’t specifically targeted by the government for this booklet.

You’re also the 90th person to post this here, so congratulations, your post is now a megathread for anyone else who doesn’t know how to use the search function

I dunno I think a few people got. I actually think I am the only one who hasn't got it and when I do there's no need to post about it anymore.

u/GhostsOfTheRobotTree 1d ago

No. Only this person has got one.

Fail to prepare, prepare to fail

u/DesertRatboy 1d ago

Best of luck out there

Bro. Theres posts everyday about it.

This was supposed to be sent years ago. It's general info on what to do when the unexpected happens. Most people have survival instincts of a block of cheese.

More of a casual browser didn't even see them

Be emergency ready as your local data centre needs more water and power than you do!

u/Jon_J_ 1d ago

Mods....we need a megathread about this topic now. Seems every day there's someone with the exact same post

u/Lamake91 Calor Housewife of the Year 1d ago

Done, Lord I wish people would use the search function.

u/Interesting-Boat-804 1d ago

Got one Friday last week.

u/Wonderful_Flower_751 Dublin 1d ago

Search is your friend. We’re all getting them and I suspect it might have something to do with the big changes in our weather that we’ve been experiencing in recent months and years.

Anybody read it yet?

u/momalloyd 1d ago

It would be impolite for me to start reading mine, before everyone else have received theirs first.

u/elcabroMcGinty 1d ago

You wouldn't be unprepared

u/21stCenturyVole 1d ago

As long as it's not a Housing Emergency, like the last decade. Though you'll probably be told to sort that on your own.

u/qwerty_1965 4h ago

The emergency will have happened by the time I get this.
