Oh heck, now you're asking...

I think the white thing at the bottom is my aluminium DO (the round thing with the holes is its trivet). The silver/grey box is a 'Fourgas' French stove-top oven atop an army no. 12 stove. The two 3-leggers are a pair of Primus No. 210s. The black & copper-coloured box is a Coleman camp oven with my home made 'oven-driver' under it. It's an Optimus no. 111 tank & burner with an extended delivery tube so the tank is not under the oven getting cooked. Next along is a 4 pint perc on a (I think) Hi-gear cheapo meths burner. Extreme right is a state-of-the-art water carrier; ex MOD 20L black hdpe. In the back ground is Mrs Bilmo's washing-up stand with a mash can we used as a milk can hanging off it. Lighting would be a Tilley X246 Guardsman as I see its priming torch jar next to the green box. I think there's 4 different sizes of ammunition box in there too. I used to camp a bit heavier than I do now. Everything is burning: I think it was Christmas dinner 2005 cooking. IIRC we had a chunk of Bambi.

The good old days Ian, when you could pick up a brace of 210's and have change from a tenner :) How many grammes of fuel do they use per hour?

I've always liked the way you used the 210's / griddle setup, a picture posted here is required.

Most of my cooking is over a fire or coals, if I'm hiking any distance then I'll take an alky stove or maybe gas.
