Oh yes, and some of your gems of intellectual insight are far more stimulating.

English Assasin,

"If you aren't careful I'll start a portable stove thread (personally I think you can't beat a trangia, though I have got some alluringly dangerous ex army ones that run on pressurised petrol, or, rather more safely, parafin)"

I use a simple stove top attachment that screw directly onto a 1lb tank of propane, the same as my new lantern uses. That simplifies fuel logistics. Very handy, very easy.

Good reasoning, but I've never really got on with propane. The thing with meths is you can see how much you've got left, also the burner can never go wrong. AFAIK you get more or less the same calories per pound which is the main thing I care about if I'm carrying it.

Anyway my Trangia has seen me through many adventures and I reckon will probably outlive me so for better or worse I'm stuck with it now.
