Brit Ration Packs for Moot delivery

[Midnitehound]

OK, I got carried away, struck whilst the iron was hot and bulk bought 20 varied menus from my surplus guy.

They are at cost at £8.00 for delivery to the Moot. Any spares will be sold on the Moot stall for £9.00. These are normally £12 each or more. Oh, and they are in date! The nuts are BBE out in September but all the rest has 9-12 months left on it which means years!

If you want to pre-order at the cheaper price then shout now. I could do with money by BACS because I kind of just over extended myself by £160!

I just randomly opened menu 16 and it has:

Vegetarian All Day Breakfast
Tuna Chilli Pasta
Yellow Chicken Curry and Rice
Fruit Cake
Green Tabasco
Tuna with Lime and Pepper
Fruit Puree Mango/Banana/Apple
Fruit and Oat Snack Bar
Fruit and Nut Mix
Mixed Fruit Sweets
Isotonic Drink Powder Cherry
Orange Drink
Apple Drink
Tropical Drink
Hot Chocolate Regular
Re-usable Poly Bag
Tea Bagsx2
Wet Wipesx2
Beverage Whitenerx4
Instant Coffeex2
Sugarx4
Matches
Tissues
Water Purification Tablets
Spoon
Menthol, Spearmint and Peppermint Dental Chewing Gum

These look like they are a bargain and yummy. The other menus look good too.

Lots of other choices for main meal such as Beef Goulash, Chicken Massaman and Potato, Lamb Curry, Beef Stroganoff, Chicken Sweet and Sour, Spanish Meat Balls etc., many with separate rice.

Someone please say they want some of these at the Moot now I have them and I will split some with Countryman for transporting hopefully.

Put me down for four (if that's not being greedy) please. The tuna chilli pasta in particular, in fact happy to have three of that variety. Would you like payment now or at the Moot?

Me.

I think there are only two of those available. They have your name on them, literally when I can find a marker!

 

[Lou]

Sorry to be slow, but what exactly are the Brit ration packs? How many do they feed etc. do you have a link with more details? sorry, sorry, I would be interested in buying some if I had more details ...

 

[John Fenna]

Put me down for 4 as well please - any menu
I will have cash at the Moot if that is OK - I cannot do owt else as I am busy until Monday - when I head off to MM

 

[Countryman]

British army Ration Packs feed one soldier in stressful circumstances for one day. I think they run to about 4000 calories.

 

[Lou]

Ok. Sorry, having a slow moment here, now I have looked at the list a little closer, so I understand, you get ALL of this list in one ration pack. Wow. I'll have to have one now just so I can undo all those little packets. In fact, I will have one chicken Massaman please.

 

[Midnitehound]

Good gracious, I shouldn't have mentioned the main meals, now people are ordering off the menu!! lol

Right then, that is 9 scone, like the fastest cake in the West, scooooooooooon! (Turn head from right to left!)

I'm going to need a trailer at this rate. Get the roof box out Countryman!

 

[Midnitehound]

Well that is interesting, the other box contains the other side of the menu selection.

Main meals 1-10: Chilli Con Carne, Beef and Cassava, Chicken Tikka, Lamb Hotpot, Gurkha Style Pork Curry, Steak and veg, Chicken Mushroom Pasta, Beef Bol and Pasta Shells, Chicken Panang and finally Paella.

Left on other side is Beef Goulash, Beef Stroganoff, Veg Curry and Rice, Chicken Sweet and Sour (Actually nope, I'm having that!), Chicken Tomato Pasta, Sausage Casserole.

You actually get beef jerky in some of this lot along with all sorts of other goodies.

Only eight left, 5 menus actually earmarked.

I'm sure there will be the usual trading around of other contents.

Yep, female Gurkhas make the chauvinist Gurkhas into Gurkha Style Pig Curry!

I'll have to sacrifice my S&S chicken then, not a problem, I can get more. :sulkoff: Cash on Tuesday please DHD. Find me at the NC before the Moot 'vulchers' realise there are RATs about and the price goes up in a bidding war!

Oh, and anyone chowing on these around the fire needs to give me a spoonful taster for future reference!

UPDATE:

ALL RATs ARE NOW GONE, THE PLAGUE IS OVER. THANKS PIPER, I OWE YOU A PIE!!
