can you use those square camping stoves, that usually come in a carry case? bbqing fine for thursday/ early friday, but cooking meat that's left in your tent for more than 24 hours, no thanks!

you could try bringing a flask of hot water...

would that work ?

Go to the vans selling tea/coffe and barter with them for a cup of boiling water.

Why cant you use solid fuel??

[markeee]

yea a tripod over a fire sounds like a good idea!

but prob best to get a cheap solid fuel cooker

At Latitude they had an area full of microwaves and kettles and things where you could go make your noodles dunno if you had to pay for the service. Pretty sure they haven't had this at Reading before but there might be a chance of them doing it this year maybe? (ok not likely, but possible...)

If not...look for me in 2010 behind the new kettle and microwave stall

or as others have said, spend the fiver on a different kind of stove...

They should make boiling water available free/cheap if they're banning gas canisters. It would make life so much easier.

The oxfam tent are good for hot water, but stalls generally charge £1 to fill a pot noodle.

They should set up a 20p "hot water" tent. It would be a good little money maker, and nobody would really begrudge paying 20p for some warm food.
