If your intended use is purely temporary eg as you say during a power outage, rather than a permanent installation that happens not to need power, you could do a lot worse than a Super Ser or similar. Bottled gas, 11kg bottles.

Gravity fed oil stoves work well, that’s what we have. Wood pellet fired stoves do need power, but not very much, you could run one for many hours on something like an EcoFlow power pack.

Of course there’s always the good old fashioned wood, turf, or coal fireplace … or stove …

Thank you for that, EB 😀 . I have ordered a rather more flimsy two ring camping stove (butane powered) but have filed your advice for future need.

Dinner has been shallot/halloumi/lemon/bay leaf/fennel/garlic kebabs with couscous. We filled the hive with a Crash Test Dummies album - 32 years old and I cannot believe that! There’ll be a track on the Juke-Box soon.

Soo xx

Thank heaven for fingerless gloves made from Fred the local alpaca farm’s male alpaca’s wool or should it be alpaca yarn?

Fingerless gloves are my friends too, Twellsy, although mine do cover at least half of my fingers.

It was Bluddy cold in the night, & first thing this morning, & has warmed to 9° now.

45 years ago, I had just got married, & it was a much warmer day.

This is one of the reasons we don’t change our clocks (or routines) any more since we’ve both been retired - it always took at least 2 weeks before I could stay asleep any later than what my body thought was the usual time, or stay awake any later in the evening for that matter. By the time I’d adjusted I was exhausted.
