I've survived 30 years of camping so far doing this.

Indeed, but not everybody is a clever as you which is why nobody should post what is basically daft advice on forums.

At the risk of sounding to 'clever', stating what I do in my tent is really my prerogative is it not?
There was a thread on the subject of using gas lamps inside tents some years back, lots of campers manage it safely, its called 'choice'.

Well, clever or daft, at least I'm not RUDE.

Also worth pointing out that you also have no idea what the Op's level of understanding is.

My opinion happens to be that MOST people are capable of using a gas lamp without burning themselves to death in their tents.

Never had EHU so we just adapt our lifestyle. We buy perishable food as we need it, generally one meal at a time. Small cartons of milk, a box of single portion UHT milk cartons is also handy for hot drinks.

No need for heating, just ensure you take layers of clothes, including base layers which are excellent at keeping you warm, a decent hat and a fleece snood for keeping the neck warm.
