Guys the first box of ten packs have arrived. Ideal timing for your mourne wall trip. There is one of each menu from the original list. If you let me know what you need I will arrange to meet you. I live in Greenisland or can meet you in Belfast

So you'll be comming then, good to hear

so who used these bad boys on the mourne wall trip and lets hear some reports

They're a good job, I brought Ravioli and Lemon desert, and then had an all day breakfast for the morning.  They defo filled a hole and it was great to have a three course meal at the end of the day (ravioli, lemon desert, hot chocolate).

Bonus features, water purification tablets (which u can't buy over the counter no more), we had to fill from Spelga, so having the tabs helped the psychology, not having to worry about a dose of the pancake Tuesdays......

The energy drink packet - total bonus.  All the extra biscuits and oat meal bars and a big chocolate bar.... bonus i tell ya.

So, I'd recommend anyone gets at least one days rations, just for the fun of it, as they are fun - and filling !!

And I'm not on commission.

Not to mention the waterproof matches, tea and coffee, sugar, all sorts...........

Was rifling through these last night and just to be 100% - the dates on the individual items are packing dates, not use by since mine are all 2007/2008. I'd hate to have just given the small boy some chewing gum thats 3 years out of date

[ratpack]

Hi folks - straight to the point, I found your forum and this thread via Google. I have ten boxes of ten of current rations, all packing dates of 2008 to get rid of. They were bought for an expedition that didnt ha[[en and I need to clear some space!

They have been stored in a dry, dark room in the house, no manky shed outside.

If you are interested, drop me a pm and we can negotiate prices etc. Im happy to send a whole box of ten (tenner postage via Citylink next day) or individuals via Royal Mail or again Citylink (same price as a box of 10 sorry)

Was going to sell them on eBay but the listing fees are silly and I was warned off selling them on there due to scams and stuff.

Cheers folks.

Out of interest, how much are you looking for all ten?

Out of interest, how much are you looking for all ten?

Sorry down to four now, a neighbour who does a lot of fishing has had a load off me.

Id take £300 for the remaining four boxes, which is £7.50 a box. If anyone is interested, drop me a pm, and I'll get you a courier quote, but it will be around 40 quid for the four via Citylink (get it a bit cheaper through work)
