    Poor picking at 3 car boots today.
    Even the decent burger van was missing.
    The weather was bad as well.

    That was on offer at 07:30 for £45

    By 11:00 it was mine for £10,

    Did not have time to test it today.

    But I have some Coaleman fuel, plus a Holts break cleaner. So it will be tested in the next few days.

    Looking good, for the first burn.

    I think we have a leak or two, or three or lots.

    CO2 extinguisher had it all under control..

    Two solder joints had failed, so we fixed them and replaced all the seals.
