The Mighty Pikes and the Tanzanian tri-stone


1st one speaks for itself:



















2nd one: in Tanzania I noticed that when they cooked on fire they didn't waste effort chopping or breaking sticks to length, they just laid long sticks in one direction and set fire to the middle of them with a pile of tinder and kindling. Then as they burnt away they fed the unburnt section in from the outside. They used 3 rocks roughly the same size but any old shape to support the pan and because of the tripod effect were able to find a position in which the pan was stable.
Jenny tried this to support the beantin, much easier than trying to find a flat rock, more stable and reduced the amount of heat transmitted to the ground because of the gap in the middle.






















Ah.. the 5 elements of Hip Hop:
  1. beantin
  2. tarp
  3. wild camp
  4. nip of whisky
