Fire! Ffffire!

Send it back as faulty, say it's a natural material that's supposed to be safe around fires, quote loads of consumer legal stuff and say you'll sue him, I'll let you have his address so you can go and sort it out with your mates if you don't get anywhere through the courts

Brilliant idea Tony

Its kind of puckered up around the hole and gone brittle.

That sounds uncomfortable....
I have put in enough patching leather that you can cut off the crinkly bit and still patch the hole.

Oh yeah - join in do.....FRIEND!

What are you complaining about???

I didn't tell Bodge you're planning to be visiting a certain campsite not too far from him in a couple weeks so you don't have to worry about him turning up demanding satisfaction

Then again, maybe you can appease him with a pink tassel or two. I'm sure you've got a few spare

And the moral of the story is: teabags make a useful back-up fuel for a fire!

'Tis the only thing they are good for.

Oh no Leon!
Damp tea bags are excellent for reviving tired sore eyes. Very good if you want to reduce redness after weeping your heart out after having toasted your favourite bit of kit - or so I understand!

This is very much a glass half empty attitude John, it should be looked at as an opportunity to learn new skills or an excuse to buy more stuff. It also gives the idea that teabags are possibly good as ember extenders so they do have at least one use.

Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!
Make good pan scourers as well as the obvious brew up

Well my new JF brew pouch has arrived safe and sound along with some spare for patching up the damaged one.
I believe this new one has been treated with snake oil so is flame, ember, bullet and earthquake proof.
Thanks John.

I have been described - in the past - as a "Snake oil salesman"....
