Top notch :You_Rock_

How did you go about getting the permission? Would have thought the council would be less likely to give anyone permission since they are more formal. What a dull dog walker :lmao:

Bidwell, is that the scout site?

Yes just past Walkern in Stevenage

I'm off to Ardeley next month, took a drive up there the other night and it looks very nice. Choice of woods and fields to camp in. Though it is £25 for a fire kit inlcuding 'Extra Large 40 litre Bag of Ash Logs, Extra Long Matches, Kindling & Firelighters. Includes Permission for Open Fire.'...

I will do! Thanks

The woodlands-ways is slightly cheaper and close to me. I will have to try Frontier Bushcraft another time I think

Great trip, rabbit looks tasty

Nice, even lower price. I didn't fancy waiting 20 days for delivery so I opted for a UK seller.

This is probably the worst place I could say this.. but I do not drink tea! Or any hot drinks for that matter.. :sad6: I'll get my cook on and post the results lol

Christmas is here: The Alocs stove has arrived. Out the box it comes in a protective casing which seems to be of good quality. Well packaged. Good finish on the stand and burner. Holes are of two sizes, hopefully large enough.

I won't need much, first stove so probably just a 1L will do. I have been recommended to check out B&M stores, or most home bargain stores. The wire cover is a good idea

Any recommendations on best fuel??

Very similar! A like for like copy in terms of design. I'll have to consider the hot base and choose where I place it, thanks for the info

Nice spot, hoping to get out in the bluebells this Friday if I'm lucky!

Aldi has a small cheap axe for sale on their website if anyone is interested. https://www.aldi.co.uk/small-axe/p/092222007471200

The air tight click food containers sounds like the best way to contain it. There are some cheap collapsible aluminium windbreaks on Amazon, shall have to invest in one to go with the Aloc. Any recommendations on best fuel??

Yes I read about the vaccume issue. This is my first meths stove so it will be good to learn, hopefully not the hard way as I shall take your advice! Watched a video on YouTube and it does look good. I'll let you know how I get on!

Just ordered the Aloc Alcohol Stove. Looks good, dirt cheap at £10. Great reviews. Anyone else use these ??
