Coffee and croissants in the sun.

The stove is a “Bushcraft Essentials” twig burning wood stove with an insert for alcohol gel fuel – the insert was the bottom of a small tin of Burt’s Bees lip balm. It is not the most efficient stove but a good stand-by stove to carry with my brew kit. One measure of fuel – about 20ml – is enough to heat about 300ml of water to coffee or stock cube soup temperature. I use an up-cycled hand sanitiser bottle (60ml) to carry the fuel.

Lunch and a short walk

As it was a nice day I packed my lunch and went out. I also had to give the battery in the car a run and get more fuel – so en route I stopped in a good lay-by with access to some footpaths.

I packed my backpacking cooking gear so I heated water and made fresh ground coffee. The rest of lunch was a hot cross bun and a banana. Once that was finished I headed off for a mile or two across the fields.

The weather was so nice that when I got back to the car, I made some tea and joined my next Teams meeting whilst sitting out in the sun.
