If you’ve ever spent a soggy Tuesday evening on a campsite in the Lake District, hunched over a hissing stove that refuses to boil water, the odds are good your camping gas regulator was to blame — not the weather (although, to be fair, the weather certainly wasn’t helping). Gas regulators camping setups rely on … Read more
There’s a particular kind of frustration that only campers know. You’re standing in a soggy field somewhere in the Lake District, the wind is horizontal, and your stove — that cheerful little device you’ve trusted for years — refuses to light. Not because it’s broken. Because the Camping Gaz refill you bought last summer turned … Read more
There’s a particular kind of dread that hits about thirty seconds before the kettle should be boiling: the flame sputters, sighs, and dies, and you realise your gas has chosen this exact moment — drizzling, dim, somewhere outside Pitlochry — to give up. Propane cylinders camping kit doesn’t get much glory. Nobody photographs their gas … Read more
There’s an old camping cliché: spend your money on the big things, save on the small ones. Tent, sleeping bag, boots — yes. Gas canister? Surely just gas is gas, right? Wrong.

The dishes are done. And now you’re standing there, wet to the elbows, with nowhere to put anything that won’t immediately topple into a … Read more
Picture this: you’re somewhere beautifully windswept — the Peak District, maybe, or the Pembrokeshire coast — and you’re crouched over your camping stove, lighter flicked for the fourteenth time, watching the flame die in the same gust that’s been trying to steal your hat for the past hour.

There is a particular kind of misery known only to British campers. You’ve arrived at a muddy field in the Peak District, rain is threatening from the south-west (it always is), and you’re rummaging through four overlapping carrier bags trying to locate the spatula, the camp stove gas, a tin of baked beans, and the … Read more
