    That’s hilarious, you should join me on a camp! I carry whiskey and fire lighters, 2 golden rules don’t pour whiskey on the fire and don’t eat the fire lighters. Happy April fools. Ramble On👍

    As a rule aways carry whiskey & also make sure its over 50%
    Wild turkey 101 is my favourite.
    You don't need to justify anything you carry if you want it & are prepared to haul it then pack it.
    My mate insists on hiking with 5kg of frankfurters in his pack I think it may be one packet too many but its up to him.

    On a serious note; have you tried Alcohol Hand Sanitiser? You can buy small plastic bottles of it from any chemist shop or ebay. I think you'll find it a lot more manageable to use..... and cheaper 😀

    Very amusing Giles! :-)
    If you want more success when fire lighting with alcohol, you might try soaking a cotton wad (for example, part of an old t-shirt or underpants) and using that as tinder.

    • @gilesbinyon
      @gilesbinyon  2 года назад

      Ha ha ! Setting light to my underpants would, I fear, cause some kind of Eternal Fire and I would be forever bound to the woods as it’s guardian !!! 🔥😂 thanks for watching Terry 😊

    • @gilesbinyon
      @gilesbinyon  2 года назад +1

      Thank you Export Wild. EBay is usually your best bet. Try searching ‘Plash Palatka’ or ‘ Zeltbahn’ or even ‘Pup Tent’ or ‘‘military cape’ There may be supply problems at the moment due to the war. Some of this gear came from/through Ukraine. Also try Military Mart (UK shop) - they sometimes have Romanian versions of the Russian Plash Palatka. Good luck 👍
