If you are talking about the Oval mug set, Then the crusader MK1 and Mk2 will work but the stoves are a lot bigger than the cup. Also the pathfinder stoves. The Swedish M40 stove/wind guard is too big for the cup, Trangia with a cross on top work well with a small packable windshield.
I have just got back from Op London Bridge. Was hoping for a relaxing weekend in the woods, but my mum fell over yesterday when I was coming back from work. Luckily nothing to serious, but have to keep an eye on her. So does not look like I am going to be able to camp out. But if I get some...
I was hoping to pop down over the weekend for a quick visit, but unfortunately my clutch went on down on my car on the Friday, whilst in Coventry when I was getting some paperwork signed. Broke down at 11am finally had a rac guy turn up at 5:30 pm and finally got home at 10:30 pm.

The internationally recognised system for official timings is the date time group system it is mainly used by the military. So an example would be:

I use the same type of paraffin lamp filler, I use some citronella paraffin oil in mine and can last up to 2-2.5 hours, at the price I have q few of them so I can easily slip them out when done and then put another in if I still need a light, but often I just let it burn out and replace it the...
There are a few options out there depending on your needs.
My main preferred option now in the new issue green string it is about a 3mm cord with a breaking strain of about 300lb which I can sometimes get through the stores chain in the army. The old stuff we had was the worst for stretch ever...
Work being what it is at the minute I can not make the weekend as a whole but hope to pop in on Saturday to come and see people. I am currently working 6 days a week, 4 for Amazon and 2 for the Reserves, but I feel and need a bit of woods time even if it does mean I get a bit of lack of sleep...
Due to my current work I am unable to attend fully but I hope to be able to pop in. I will drop off the large dutch oven so it can be used for the group.
Recently I have bought some new items so I may bring a few for a quick show and tell, if I can make it.
I am another of the sub zero group coming to the moot. I do have a couple of questions:
I have paid for the ticket, gone out of my bank account, but not received a ticket is that right? Am I still on the list?
Is there plenty of room for a large tent? I have a 10 man artic tent ( about the...
Looking at my kit and my wants and needs, I am sorting out some projects I plan on for the year to improve my kit. A sort of New Years resolution type thing. My big trip is hopefully to Finland in February with the sub zero group. I have had many people infulence me over the years and quite a...
It is an original smokehouse hammock tent in multi-cam. This meet I only used bungees and pegs to sort it out for the wall, not the usual walking poles or bivi poles I normally use. I did not put my stove in because it was not cold enough and I was on a cam cot with a this polish sleep mat...
