Resistance is futile, and the buying will never stop!
I was delighted to find a small lightweight cast aluminium non-stick griddle with a folding handle so that I could fry my steak etc. and give it a criss-cross pattern.
Also bought a beach shelter from Argos eBay outlet for just under 5.00 GBP including postage for the dog.
Still need to get a SIM, plus a tow bar and cycle carrier for the car.

Have managed to resist a posadas bed..What ever happened to the old style..tent,cooker,pan,cup,roll mat and sleeping bag! But I can't think of spending money on anything else,so worthwhile and good for the soul

Ohh I like it. We had trouble with out cooker last weekend (too cold for the gas),took a while to get going,so this seems to be the solution...more spending,might have to do a bit more saving.(although I have put 2 in the watched list,ebay).Thank you DK (again)

Where did you find your griddle in the end DK?
Cheers
I bought the Coleman Dual Fuel 2-burner stove so that I can camp all year round, as the Cadac Safari Chef and the suitcase stoves are no good at sub-zero temperatures.
Got a Coleman Dual Fuel Sportster to supplement the Cadac at first, then I treated myself to a 424 2-burner stove.
The 424 is now my stove of choice, with the Sportser as the back up and spare.
