And there's a story behind this one:

http://www.jubileegroup.co.uk/JOS/misc/dscf2494.jpg

The hiker is on the grass because it caught fire. SWMBO had had a go at replacing the leather pump washer but, as I found out later, had managed to leave half of it in the pump. A bit of it eventually found its way into the non-return valve while I was giving it an extra pump to make a start on my second cuppa.

It was quite exciting there for a time when a jet of burning petrol shot our of the pump body, but I put the stove out of the way, closed it up to stifle the flames, and then let it cool down while I finished my first cuppa.

I've spent many a happy hour in the French aires, usually fast asleep or stuffing my face.

They're much nicer than our grotty laybys over here

Some (lots) good pics coming up

Something even less carry friendly

I now have both stove and kettle envy :notworthy

Does the MSR Titan kettle count? I use it as a pot as well as a kettle.

Tatonka 1.6l, its called a Kettle even if it isnt

They're bot titled, marketed and sold as kettles ~ they're kettles. That you can also use a kettle as a pot is an added benefit .

Phil, look what you've started.........

Sometimes I surprise myself ...



... usually it's when I look in the mirror .

I'm loving all these kettles with veiws and stories- there can't be any better symbol of woodland comfort, the very best woodland present I ever got was waking up to a thermos of hot water a very considerate and lovely neighbour in the woods had left for me to wake to

Martins camp coffee pot. That was nuclear juice by sunday, just the jobbie for a good weekend workparty

And my favorite brew pause picture, no sporks included....

The most impressive brewage I remember was Woodspirits smouldering log which kept going all through one cold meet weekend, no flames but enough heat to keep that little eagle pumping out the hot water like a little magic porridge pot Thank you, Phil, for a thread on a subject close to our hearts!
