Tin mug & gas canister - I love it when a (non)plan comes together
« on: May 31, 2010 »
Perhaps it's just me being incredibly sad (wife just gave me a look when I showed her)....but I love it when this kinda thing happens:



Fits perfect (with the jay cloth to stop the rattle).

Side note: took me ages to find a non plastic, non insulated metal mug that I can use on my pocket rocket. Tiso/Millets/Scoutshop all no-go....turns out that the army surplus shop in the old Smithfield Market (back of Castle Court) sells them £2.99 a pop...and it holds a pint.

Whats the gas for? I saw a honey stove in your album do you use gas with it?

The gas is for my Pocket Rocket.

At the moment the Honey stove is just a post-dinner heat/light source. (loaded it up with tea lights at the weekend on our overnight on Trassey Track)

There's nothing better than being able to use every available nook and cranny in your ruck. One of these days I'll do the ultimate bag fill when I have a requirement on a trip for a load of polystyrene packing peanuts :D
