He said he might be interested which isn't 'yes', and isn't 'no'. He didn't offer anything either, so it's still there.

This is the actual stove this morning...

It's 3" high & 5½" dia. The windshield is my addition. The burner is slightly narrower, but deeper, than a Trangia burner.

Prior to buying a proper Trangia, I bought it so Mrs Bilmo could brew-up at camp if I wasn't there. Since she fireballed my 111, no amount of explanation & practical demonstration could convince here to use pressure stoves.

In the woods if possible.

The wife's computer tells jokes when you log on. I don't normally take much notice, but here, almost unbelievably, is yesterday's 'fortune cookie':


A new 'chutist had just jumped from the plane at 10,000 feet, and soon discovered that all his lines were hopelessly tangled.

At about 5,000 feet, still struggling, he noticed someone coming up from the ground at about the same speed as he was going towards the ground.

As they passed each other at 3,000 feet, the 'chutist yells, "HEY! DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT PARACHUTES?"

The reply came, fading towards the end, "NO! DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT COLEMAN STOVES?"

:rofl:

Okey, dokey blokies, i'll take this.

On ofer from me is a Windproof shirt in size medium, it fits me and my chest is about a 42".

It's made by Cutter and Buck, which is a well known American brand and is a sort of lime green.

Great windproof, it just doesn't get used.

Pics to follow if anyone shows an interest.

PM to Bilmo.
