I am English. I have a GBR passport. This is roughly the same as an EU passport, with a few differences. But I am good to enter all countries as a visitor, and residency should prove easier than someone from the US.

I am an IT consultant, specialising in Disaster Recovery planning. (Yes, I put together worst case plans for a living.) From this I have skills in planning, prioritising, delegation and organisation. I am also a qualified Divemaster. Leadership, teaching, first-aid and rescue are the skills I bring from this.

All the plans I make are multi-purpose. Since the expenditure on a BOL fortress is quite a significant amount, it must be useful even if Z-Day (or other insert-disaster-here scenario) doesn't happen. So the BOL main house will be a combination holiday home and DR site for my main business. The dive boat will be rented out to a dive resort in the Caribbean. The smaller homes will be rented out to workers who will tend the farmland, selling the produce (break-even or small loss) and keeping the place running ready for when the worst happens.

Personal Fitness

Whilst I am in shape enough for the UK Dive medical, I am not in as good a shape as I want. My current score on the APFT is 171174 (31PU,(32PU, 54SU,55SU, 18:00R17:00R at 22nd4th August).September). I would like to be up to the Ranger Standard (217) by the end of AugustDecember (49PU, 59SU, 6CU, 16:00R). Yes, the Ranger run is 5 miles not 2, but it averages out to 8 minutes a mile, which is how I got that time.

Thanks to all the swimming, I have a good abdominal section, so I am not far off that goal. However, I am used to operating with most of my weight supported by the water, which is why my arms and cardio suck a fat one. But I am going to keep at it. Weirdly, I can blitz the chin-up requirement. I guess different arm muscles are used in that one.

Update: That big patch of red is because I got sick. So it looks like I am going to miss my target by a large margin. I will still keep going though, and log how I do. I will alsomoving tryagain, and getstarting back on track, just in case. It's still a hugenew improvementcontract. fromThis themeans startlots of this year,disruption, when Iso wouldmy beworkout hardis pressedgoing to do 20PUbe andpushed 40SU.back.
