liamium Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 never bothered with stoves before but always regretted not having one when confronted with what seems like the unconquerable - stumbling groggily to the nearest place selling coffee. got this today for £8. tiny, fits in the palm of my hand and weighs nothing. got the gas canister at the same time as an add-on item for £3ish, also tiny. just tested in the garden in a light breeze and boiled 1l in about 3 minutes, enough for 3 big cups. adds basically nothing to my kit weight but think i'll really appreciate it every morning https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dpower-Backpacking-Portable-Kitchen-Accessories-x/dp/B016ZHFOTS/ref=sr_1_20?ie=UTF8&qid=1496489884&sr=8-20&keywords=camping+stove Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went in and bought a 100ml hand sanitizer from Poundland for, yes you've gussed it, £1, only a couple of days ago. I had actually thought that they'd be selling two for a £1. I even asked the bloke assisting on the self check out tills if it were definitely was only one four a £1 and he said yes it was definitely just the one. I've been robbed of 39p!

Like making us a cuppa and egg buttie before we leave the ten in the morning and this is much lighter and smaller than the stove we used to take. Had a quick trial earlier but couldn't get it to work though, alas no instructions included-any tips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been doing it since the Joe Bananas days. Saves us a fortune on checking extra bags and the hassle etc flying over. You can travel very light as a result. Might help for your long trip down south.
