Hi, I have brought a campingaz bistro stove and the canisters are 4 for £9.99 in argos, just been to the range and they had ones that looked the same (thay sat with the same stove as the bistro but was a differnt make) I was wondering if the campingaz bistro canisters CP250 are the same as the ones in the range (they were A something size?) as they are 4 for £5. Also could they be used with campingaz as the instructions with the stove say only use with the campingaz gas, or are they saying that to make more money? Also are all these types of canisters 'resealing' types, so I can take the canisters out when im not using them even if they not empty?

Also I am planing to have an electric pitch, what would I need? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Caravan-Mains-Female-Hook-Cable/dp/B001DUMI88/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=sports&qid=1275145492&sr=1-8

Would that be ok, then use a normal extension lead with sockets? Or would I need a male one, or a different thing alltogether? Im only planing to go for 3 nights and can't afford to spend much, but obviously don't want anything to be dangerous!

Many thanks for any replys and all the advise ive already read!

Hi Loulou

I bought some of the gas canisters yesterday 4 for £3.99 from B&M same make as B&Q had for £6
Happy camping

The cannisters are a common size and are available at a number of stores, at the moment Morrisons are selling 4 for a fiver.
