    The Old Whisperlite, Where to get parts?

    I can understand exactly why you would want to fit OE. You must have developed your own way of using your stove long ago. It’s part of the trip. I’m the opposite, I love old, battered, burned and dinged kit. Burn kerro? Twist paper handkerchiefs or a couple of pieces of toilet roll into a...

    The Old Whisperlite, Where to get parts?

    According to this you may not even need one! If you are burning kerro then take paper handkerchiefs. I only use stick stoves or low pressure alcohol (Trangia) but the handkerchief idea in this link is how I start my Trangia when it gets cold.

    Weather to come.......

    Sorry WG this rain is my fault. I always try to get my annual hedge cut and mowing done before the wet sets in. I used to start at the end of October. It’s crept earlier over the last five years as I’ve tried to beat it. This year I thought bugger it and started in the last days of September...

    And exactly what is non-bushcraft about a Bacon and brie sarnie prepared over a boot polish tin :). I’d share mine with Lady Gaga. OK Bannock

    Newbie (and child, also newbie)

    Show her different leaves. Autumn is the perfect time. Shows her that there is more to your local park than the play area. Get her to draw leaves and trees. Show her some different shapes. Fat oaks have growly voices, birch trees are young ladies like her. Christmas trees are very special.

    Compost

    I can’t see it making any difference if your dalek is lidded. Mine are on slabs. I suppose they could burrow in if they were on soil but no more than they would for food waste generally.

    Super Dad wanting tips to teach his kids.

    Do you have a garden? A sleep outdoors with or without a tent has been a big one for my family; children and grandchildren. (Not all have taken to it and most in-laws are against!). If you have a fire pit, bowl or a bucket with some hatchet holes in it, then teaching lighting a fire and making...

    Voluntarily handing in a large blade to the UK police

    Thank you very much for putting in the work that got your knife back. I am going to hang on to this thread. It describes a useful sequence and a brilliant precedent. I don’t think that you will get any sort of reprisal but keep a journal of anything that happens if it does. Once again - thank...

    FlexiStove

    I would wish to support an entrepreneur, especially someone promoting outdoor equipment. I do feel that Flexistove is suffering from a lack of market research before it started production. One might have expected the feedback it is getting here to have been learned using prototypes. I know it...
