What have you learned recently?

I bought a new design of gas stove a couple of weeks ago and havnt had a chance to try it out untill yesterday.
I'm used to the gas tap being on the stove itself and after screwing on the gas canister searched in vain for a way to turn the gas on.
Took it back to the shop to complain that there was no way to turn the gas on to be able to light it.
Well did I feel a fool.!
It doesn't screw straight on to the can of gas but has a hose and the tap is on the end of the hose where it screws onto the canister.
So I've now learned how to turn on the gas on my new stove

You should join a Bushcraft forum Woody Girl, it is the sort of place you could ask people if they could solve the conundrum for you......

I've learned that going into hyperspace ain't like dusting crops.

My home buckwheat/corn flour pancake mix works up just fine with water instead of milk.
They freeze and toast up from frozen just fine. What a camping convenience.

The truckers hitch, it finally clicked that it is just an alpine butterfly and then a couple of half hitches which form a clove hitch. it was very much a penny dropping moment when I realised how simple it was.

That after an afternoon clearing brush from a steep bank with a machete, I'm not as young as I used to be.
