I went for a short walk west of Branston this afternoon.
The weather took a turn for the worst – cold and windy. I found a convenient log to sit on, to boil some water for soup.
It was a struggle to get the stove to light in the wind and even with the wind shield it took over 30mls of meths to heat the water – which did not quite reach boiling! I will have to take this into account when packing fuel for my back packing trips – I might not be allowing enough fuel on my packing list.
