Random but me and my mate were discussing the other day what we would do, where we'd go, how, why, etc if one of the dreaded Zombie style apocalypses happened that we've seen in all these films in years gone by.

We worked out where we would go, what we would want to take (in a rush of course) and which of us would have to shoot/batter-with-sharp-object the zombies of people we knew.

So, what would you do?....

Get out my copy of http://www.amazon.co.uk/Zombie-Survival-Guide-Complete-Protection/dp/071563318X/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/203-4967595-1567109?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1178177300&sr=8-1 and double check. 

And since I don't have a shaolin fighting spade, the answer is most likely be eaten by zombies.

What I'd try and do is nick a houseboat or other yacht type thing (cause there are some near the bridge where I live) and set sail for "elsewhere".

I'd quite fancy becoming a zombie. It'd be quite a simple life.

I reckon the top floor of our local halls-of-residence-building-that-got-built-too-tall-and-contravened-planning-regulations would be the best bet for lurking in, once the lifts were disabled. It's just down the road from my house, and you'd have plenty of points to defend up the stairwells, not to mention there's a Morrisons' just down the road, good for convenient panic-looting and stockpiling of groceries once people realise what's going on and the panic sets in. And you get a pretty view of the Menai Straits.

A bunch of us formulated a plan years ago.  Lets just say it invloves going to the secret nuclear bunker in Essex.

When I was living in Swindon's town centre I had a plan all worked out. The ground floor entrance to the flat would've been quite easy to barricade. The steps to the fire escape had been broken many years previously, so we were left with a convenient balcony from which to throw things at the zombies in the nearby carpark. Food and supplies wouldn't have been an issue as a bit of work bridging a couple of alleyways would mean we'd be able to get to and from the shops without ever having to be on the ground.

It'd be even better now as a gun shop has just opened down the road from the flat.

Now we live in a normal house so we're pretty screwed.

Do you think the zombies would take the lift?     Better to take out the stairs!

Sure zombies can take lifts - even Daleks can take lifts. And once chaos was reigning, we wouldn't be able to rely on the national grid, so definitely taking out the lift wouldn't do any harm.

And if we took out the stairs, we'd be a bit stuffed in the long run - once we'd run out of hoarded food. I'd vote for barricading the stairs and setting up check-point type things on a few different floors to make sure no one snuck round. Maybe some booby-traps too.
