yes yes zombies aren't real and if they were we'd probably all die or kill ourselves etc, but don't pretend you've never thought about it.

for the purposes of this thread assume they are "Walking Dead" style zombies, and you have maybe 3 or 4 days warning (mysterious illness reported on TV, reports via the internet etc) before your area is zombie central. Assume everyone nearby finds out roughly the same time as you so if you plan to escape by car, many roads etc will be blocked and stores will be packed.

Personally I have a few guns but nothing that'd help against more than a handful of zombies. Since the gunshots would probably draw more they'd have to be a last resort. I live in a semi-rural area with a 6-foot high fence so I'd be safe from a few roamers, but if a swarm came though, I'd be overrun. My plan would be to stay put for as long as possible and keep out of sight. I'd have the truck packed full of fuel, food and a generator so if there is a breakthrough I can high-tail it out of there and head for the bush (where I would probably starve to death or die stupidly).

What's your plan? I'm sure at least one of you has a concrete bunker packed with supplied purely for this occasion.

no sprinting like 28 days, no saying "braaaains", think more of a shuffle where a "fresh" zombie could easily break through a window, but as they age, they revert to the weak shambling type whose only strength is numbers.

if you have a contingency plan for fast zombies feel free to share it as well.
