I decided that it was about time I sorted through my stores of trail food, since it was getting disorganised and some of it was probably years out of date.
This was a productive exercise, as I managed to sort out two Harvestman Ration Packs (HRPs) and one Luxury Harvestman Ration Pack (LHRP) that I can just pcik up when packing for a longer trip. So far so good.
Then I found the container of demerera sugar, and noticed the lumps in it. Big lumps. Deciding not to open it for fear of introducing moisture, I elected to break up the lumps by shaking it hard. Any fool, except apparently this fool, could have predicted what followed...
There is now about half a pound of light brown sugar all over my kit stash, mainly my clothing, rucksacks, and miscellaneous kit
Of course, I hadn't hoovered the room earlier, had I? Of course not. So there isn't sugar all over the nice clean carpet as well, is there?
:11doh:
This is going to take some time to clear up...
