The SS canister sounds great, but mine is just a no name thing from China via the Bay.
Me too. Here's my favourite set with a modified stainless steel coffee canister as a pot:
I noticed that ASDA seems to be selling these (or something similar) in their online store. So, I popped along to our local ASDA to see if I could pick one or two up. The didn't sell it in the store. Also went to Sainsbury's, Tesco, Robert Dyas and TK Max without luck. Basically wasted my afternoon
10cm billy with a trangia burner if I'm not using an open fire...
Kuksa brought back from Finland...
Or this mug which I've had for over 10 years ... Even seen war in Iraq and still going strong!! Looks brand new still
it's even been used to hammer pegs into the ground...Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Nice Paul. I notice you have the Triangle upside down and don;t have the burner on its support. Deliberate?
My wife and kids did another park run this morning, giving me a chacne to use the GSI Kettle.
I didn't bother timing it or anything. I can spare a little time, if needed. As it happens, I think it takes around the same time as the Trangia 25 Kettle.

My one cup brew kit, "stove" made from hacked Alu canteen cup with added vents / supports etc - all packs up nicely, works well with either hexi, pine cones, brush wood etc.
Looks like a nice spot

Yep, I work in Manchester a lot so this is from a mid week evening jaunt up Kinder Scout.
If I remember correctly the shot is just at the top of Crowden Brook, perfect place for a brew.

Though I've a plethora of stoves there's something comforting about the murmuring hiss of a Primus over the boisterous roar of my more modern stoves. That and the cherry glow reflected back from the burnished gleam of the metal work. The smell wafts me back through time too.They can be exiting though when you are a bit rusty on lighting technique. A fair few have been left with mild surprise eyebrows when not paying attention.

I know which I prefer, nothing is really made to last nowadays, I detest our disposable society....

Yes bud ... The ground was very spongy, and the 3 raised parts which should support the pot were useful in anchoring the whole thing down. Then I ended up suspending the billy anyway which rendered the whole exercise useless ha ... Adapt and not-quite-overcome!

The kids were given the option of walking along the beach or walking in the Forest. We haven't been to the beach for a while so, perhaps not surprisingly, they chose the beach.
Here's a view of of Christchurch bay from Steamer Point Woodland Nature Reserve. In the distance you can see Hengistbury Head and The Run (the narrow entrance to Christchurch Harbour) at Mudeford (pronounced muddyford) Quay.
We had a brew (the kids had cup-a-soups) close to Mudeford Quay. In the distance you can see the Isle of Wight (the Needles end).
