I second that. It can also be used to bake fresh bread, if you're allowed a fire. We used to take away a home-made bread mix which just needed water adding. Once it's risen and kneaded, place it in the dutch oven, rise it again, then scrape out a place in the fire where there are good embers. Put the dutch oven in the embers and more embers on top of the lid. Bread will probably be cooked in about 20 minutes. just keep checking. Cut off hunks and slather it with butter.LOL Another hint. the cheap polystyrene (sometimes under $10) chillybins are better at keeping frozen food frozen than any fancy plastic covered chillybins, if they are well sealed. I buy them from my butcher. Yes, they can be broken with rough handling, but at that price they are good value.

as an now experienced yearly camper ive got a box full of 'ohh they look great but they actually suck' past camping lights.im currently sorting thru our camping stuff and can highly recommend336061275 these, the light is brighter and takes less batteries & batterie power.

Another tip re. tarpolins . buy one which is atleast as big as the floor of your tent (you can always fold the extra under) and set your tent up on it. Not only does it help protect the floor of your tent from being damaged by stones, sticks, etc . it also makes packing up alot easier as the bottom of your tent stays clean.

We camp every year no power or generator but we do have a gas fridge.We freeze 2 litres bottles of milk put these in a chilly bin with frozen meat. Cover the chilly bin with wet sack and keep it wet every day.Put chilly bin in shady placeDon't open the chilly bin until absoultely necessary and after that no more than once a day.Keeps frozen for 5 to 7 days.Milk is good to use after that length of time too.Sometimes we freeze lemonade it stays fizzy once thawed.

I am also writing to let you be aware of of the erraroxdinaty encounter my friend's girl enjoyed browsing your web site. She even learned some things, with the inclusion of what it's like to have an amazing coaching spirit to get other people with ease learn about chosen complex topics. You undoubtedly surpassed her expected results. I appreciate you for imparting these productive, trusted, edifying and cool thoughts on that topic to Julie.
