    Lightweight cook setup

    Thank you, everyone. I mainly use alcohol to cook on. Anyway, I went and ordered the Toaks 650ml titanium pot, the Toaks pot stand/windshield and an x-boil alcohol burner. The Toaks pot stand is cheaper than the X-Boil and slightly different design, it's 4 pieces that clip together as...

    Lightweight cook setup

    Yes, I know titanium is not very nice to cook in, my idea is just to use the pot as a kettle or maybe even to boil some veg in but I think the majority of what I will ever cook will be cooked in a pan. I very rarely use pots at home for anything more than boiling or for stews. Yes, the main...

    Thank you, yes the tent is brilliant. I can't wait to get it out in some more adverse weather. And, I have no idea? :lmao:

    Lightweight cook setup

    Thanks, I definitely want a pot stand, it's just less stress of having to find things like stones if there are none about. Super cheap isn't necessarily high up the list, I really do like the X-boil, it's total weight minus fuel is only 45g! The Toaks pot comes in at £35, I could get...

    Llyn Cwm Llwch

    Had a wild camp on Saturday at Llyn Cwm Llwch. We walked from the Storey Arms, it was a fairly arduous walk with a 15kg rucksack and my fitness being lower than usual. The weather was great, we had dip in the lake in the evening and another dip in the morning before heading back down. I got to...

    Lightweight cook setup

    Looking to lose some kit weight and space and the first place I know I can lose some weight is in my cook set which is currently a Trangia 27. Out of what I've looked at, I'm pretty set on the X-Boil Ultralight pot stand and alcohol stove and a Toaks 650ml titanium pot. This is going to come...

    I don't want to cause any trouble, I'm really just venting my frustration. I've gotten a refund from OutdoorGb and ordered the same pegs elsewhere with next day delivery. Really it's a just an inconvenience and I'm grateful that my biggest worry today has been a matter of tent pegs!

    Not having much luck with outdoor type shops lately, first with Ordnance Survey, then with Prepper Shop UK and now I ordered some lightweight Y tent pegs from OutdoorGB on Sunday, decided to give them a call today as they've not arrived and they haven't even posted them as they don't have them...

    What did you buy today?

    I first saw them when I saw Simon a bloke in the woods using one. I don't think I would use butter much whilst out camping but I thought I could use it for some sort of fat to use for cooking.

    Preppers Shop UK

    That's interesting, they were on This Morning recently stating that they had been 'going for 10 years now' and that they were 'the first prepper shop in Europe'.

    Ordered direct from Lifesaver yesterday and it's been dispatched this morning. Can't ask for more than that.

    I ordered it Tuesday night so they've had from Wednesday morning to post, I don't think it unreasonable to expect it to have been dispatched by now.

    Preppers Shop UK

    They're responding to me now that I've requested a refund. They've as good as admitted that the item hasn't been posted yet, which confirms the 'pending' status.

    Thank you, and sorry you've also been through it with them. It's appalling, this was the reply on Facebook messenger this morning at 8am to a message I had sent on Friday.. 'Hi Daniel, I’m not actually customer services myself but if you can leave it with me I’ll chat to customer services and...

    Still no response, will not answer the phone, no reply via email, no reply via Facebook so I've requested a refund and opened a case with PayPal and have ordered the Lifesaver Wayfarer direct from Lifesaver, who when I spoke to on the phone assured me that they would post tomorrow and that it...
