Thanks - just checked for calor dealers in the area and it looks like the campsite do the gas so theres always that if needed.

Thanks again for all your help

I read a tip in a caravan mag that if you pour a kettle of boiling water over it you can tell how full it is as the gas bit will still be cold - dont know if it works but am going to find out as we dont know how much is left in ours!

The Calor Gas website tells you the weight for all their gas bottles.

Hi all, thought i'd just post an update on how much gas we needed for a weekend (fri night to sun dinnertime):

Used aprox 0.5kg gas, cooking 1 full meal, 2 'bacon sarnie' breakfasts and +++kettles for cups of tea

Going away for a mon-fri soon with aprox 2kg gas left, plus we got a small 'cylinder stove' for emergencies if the bottle does run out!

Thanks everyone for all the help and tips

have just been afflicated by the caravanners impulse buy syndrome and have bought one of those magnetic gas gauge jobbies, well for 2 quid i figured i'd give it a go, hopefully it'll work , if not, it's back to the scales

got some of these too  don't know what i'm gunna use 'em for but they look as though they might come in useful at some stage,
