Or ye could take a flask??

Shame nescafe stopped doing those cans that heated themselves up. I'm showing my age there.

Lol! Thatd be gd mrs davro. Its not so much the price as the queues that'd put me off buying. Maybe we should just take ice tea / ice coffee. Think the forecast is gd anyways :-)

Tesco do coffee in a can which u can heat up by cracking the top of it. It has added caffeine and other stuff in it. Downside is its about 2 quid plus a can. I can't remember the name of it but I know it's black packaging.

http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=250098679 bingo there it's there! , and kieranboruc the coffee at the stalls there is overpriced and rubbish. It's cheap instant stuff mostly.

Apologies that specific one is the actual instant jar. They do sell the exact same looking product in a small can and it's usually found next to it.

I think I'll be taking my own tea bags then.

I doubt it will be strong enough to my liking else.

I've taken a small gas stove every year for the past 5 years, never once had my bags searched. Clearly you have to be sensible with it as you have to use it inside the tent - I've always camped in Citizen T, and there's always been a good few "seasoned" campers that have had stoves with them. Nothing better than hotdogs and a coffee for brekkie!! I'm even able to make toast!! Happy days

Nice one. Think ill try and smuggle a little one in then ;-) Thanks for the tip re camping location too.
