Ive got a cheap tranga copy and its lasted years...

if your "car" camping or based somewhere i really love the coleman duel fuel sportster (spl) stove

can run on colemans white gas (expensive but most camp shops sell it ) unleaded fuel or Body shop Napthia (tetrosyl panel wipe is one brand that works fine..)

if your using unleaded run a tank of either white gas or napthia through every 3 fills or so to clean the generator out of any gumming from the petrol......

If your roughing it, Your doing it wrong ;)

Lack of planning on your part doesn't make it an emergency on mine

Hey Guys and Girls.

Been a busy week so I am hoping no SHTF this weekend
because I need to catch up on some beauty sleep. :D

Stocked up on some food preps this week mainly pasta and porridge.

Caught up on some doomsday Preppers this week as well.
I know it gets a lot of stick as a show but it does have its uses.
Although I find the latest series what I am caching up on has gone
slightly Gun mad :tinfoil

Other than that just work and the usual to be honest.

Hope all is well guys have a good weekend and enjoy the bank holiday,
If you have the time off...

Having food,water and shelter are not a right.
They are a responsibility.

So make it your priority.

Spend a bit of birthday money: The Survival Medicine Handbook by Alton & Alton, SAS Survival Handbook by wiseman (hey - every else has one), a Snugpak Response Pak because they are just so cute, and one of those little credit card mutitool thingies. On the downside - weekend camping is now postponed until tomorrow due to unforeseen events.

Problem is he can eat two packs at a time, every day for lunch if I'm not there to stop him which is 10 packs a week. Need to hide them most definitely.
