Haha Jason, did someone get a taste for that nice wee 10 inch pizza i made you on my frontier stove in the dutch oven lol. Took the cast iron 12 inch dutch oven over to Inchtavannach isle this weekend in the canoe and found that it sits perfectly in my 60 ltr canoe barrel, which is good cause...

Ah tis a sad sad day, when ones manservant has reached that stage that one must let him go. You have been a faithful and diligent manservant Dobby, i will truly miss your beer opening and tea brewing skills, but at your age i feel its only fair to let you rest in your old age dotage.

He only did it by mistake, he just went out for a walk to the post office for his old age pension and to get his memory medication from the chemists, you know how it is with these ancient old guys, the memories just not there any more probably thought he was still in his prime and could...

Thanks Elen, your right the Rannoch moor and surrounding areas are fantastic for seeing deer, ive been up Glen Etive three or four times camping now over the last few years and have seen deer and stags every single time. Wee Archie still hasnt recovered from all his exciting adventures giving...

You can have it so it doesnt touch any part of the tipi, but on mine i fitted some fire tape that they use on the edge of glass on stove doors, that way when the weathers bad you can wrap the tipi chimney hood right round the chimney with no problem, i did this at the weekend and after three...

Thanks Stuart, Next time you bring Sophie along, she can adopt Archie for the weekend. How did your weekend go, did you manage to get away to try out your stove?

Hi Stephen, the little frontier stove is proving to be one of the best buys for a while, for £139 it is an absolute steal and with the years marching on its nice for a change to be able to glamp out in a wee bit of comfort. Etive is a nice loch to paddle, but being a sea Loch, the conditions can...

Yeah, the Rannoch was still a bit icy today on the way home, but Glen Etive was totally ice and snow free, except for up on the hills, must have been a coastal gulf stream effect id imagine, bet the boarding was fun on the Saturday.
