Having had a whole month of not buying anything camping related and believe me, that's quite an achievement!!) my finger slips and I find I've just bought a Cobb!!!!

Suppose at least it's not another tent - but it did cost way more than most of the tents I own 17

Hope it's worth the incestment 17

My justification for buying it was that I hadn't spent anything on camping this month, nor have I managed to get away recently - feeble excuses 17

 

Yes, I'll certainly let you know how I get on with it - spent all of last night researching on here and balancing the pros and cons of a Cobb versus a Cadac and went for the Cobb - hoping it get here by the weekend so I can have a play with it in the garden!

Adoptatent.........

There was someone asking questions about a Cabanon Rotunde.

As you are the only person I know who has one, I suggested they leave a message FAO you. Hope you dont mind.

Top kit!

Just make sure you use good quality briquetts to fuel it and you will not go wrong.

We have used ours as main cooker on two grand tours of Europe, and will do so again on this years 20 day, 3 country tour.

Top buy, feel smug that you have now joined the ranks of camp cooking elite!

Wahey...The great thing about a Cobb is that you can use it at home and whilst away. i know you can with other cooking appliances but to be able to sit in your garden sunbathing and cook a roast at the same time is just not the same as standing at a BBQ!
