😄 I knew there’d be a biscuit. I’ve heard of a Tommy cooker but had no idea what it was comprised of, what a clever piece of kit

[@GreatWarHuts]

There is always a biscuit, Bobbie!! 🍪

Another interesting video, I wonder how long the waxed paper cups lasted in the trenches?

[@GreatWarHuts]

Not long at all we expect!

1/ - to buy and 1/6 for the refills

[@GreatWarHuts]

Bargain 👍🏻

@@GreatWarHuts I did a bit of research in army cookers when I was in the ACC many years ago lol

Do we know what went down the narrow compartment in the box, next to the refill container?

[@GreatWarHuts]

There are no witness marks in the bottom of the box, Nathan, so we think it may just be packing to stop the refill tin from rolling about.
