In any event, even without Russia, it will be a hell of a trip.
has anyone here seen the maelstrom ?

A few sticks stored in the boot would heat up those beans nicely.

It also burns without smoke and the only reside is white ash left in the bottom of the stove, so is stealthy.

even the missus is going the same way. we seem to be getting more savage as we get on, not less

I checked out 'paddy stove' and I was wrong - it is the 'Kelly Kettle' or 'Chimney Stove'
