I would say they were using trangier cookers which are brilliant. I've always used them I guess from about 14. At 15 my parents let me go camping on our own. All they did was pop there head round the door a tea time. We had trangiers and drank milk straight out of the tank at the farm.


Same here- sounds like we had similar childhoods. I remember the first time I had milk in a bottle from the shop at about 12 years old and hated it......

Been chatting to the wife about this. I am tending to agree with her. If they weren't shown how to use the equipment then maybe they did have a case. We were shown how to use the equipment and how to look after it.

I remember being on a weekend hike and we left our kit out over night and our leader took it off us and locked it in the van. After all we had left about £300 of kit open to the elements.

So maybe this leader just wasn't on the ball like ours were, I remember how good they were and think how sad it would have been for any of them to go to court.
