[Spud]

I've to cook up the sprouts and heat the mulled wine at the camp folks, would it be possible to use somebody's omni fuel stoves to get her goin, if I use my pocket rocket we could be a while 

I heard your pocket rocket was a bit low on power....

Doing the test batch of roast potatoes later, will let you know how I get on! 

Fire Blanket at the ready... 999 on speed dial 

If in doubt Google Delia

Hope it doesn't turn out like this....

Do you think I need to taste test the alcohol to make sure its a suitable strength before bringing it?

I would hate to bring it and it not get drunk
