Now this is only a few things if people on here have ideas
on these or any others ideas I would be much appreciated.



Flood protection.


That is a good one.

I am on top of a hill, so its no issue here, but simple meaures like
e.g. building a raised earh bank around the house with teh drives going
over it, will keep you dry during temporary gflooding.

If its a brand new house, consider building it a few feet above ground
level as well.

OK the bottom bit could be a cellar that just floods anyway - but can be
pumped out.
