That was pre baby. I'd be struggling to find the time to participate now. I do read a lot of the Ubuntu community notes though, if I come across problems - which (thankfully) hasn't been very much.<br /><br />Will share more on your blog though. :)<br />Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-52367064389488820882013-11-28T03:04:36.141+10:002013-11-28T03:04:36.141+10:00It's so true that life's little glitches a...It's so true that life's little glitches are reality checks for preparedness. <br /><br />I wanted to mention that your reasons for switching to Ubuntu were mine as well! Are you on the Ubuntu Forums? I'd love to friend you.

I am not sure on the details but this person said it was in Nourishing Traditions. <br />I have to look at the camping supply store some day. We buy a larger 40 gallon tank for the BBQ and the actual indoor stove too-one each and have two extras always around. Its for emergencies but imagine relying on it when cooking and then running out midway through something like canning? I have done that but had extra around luckily! <br />Its a very good thing in this day and age to be very emergency ready. I am always happy when I read that families are doing it. linda marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201901762476827737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-56008424489022261752013-11-22T06:52:06.858+10:002013-11-22T06:52:06.858+10:00I wonder if butane is liquid propane?

We have a gas burner and lantern which both use the butane cans. They're really handy because you only use what you need, then detach for storage. We've only bought 2 x 3 packs in five years. <br /><br />We don't go camping though, it's only used in emergencies. <br /><br />We have chanced on some excellent water storage vessels recently, which I will post about soon. Next mission is to find formula at a good price, to stock up.Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-46822161641780186002013-11-21T00:20:10.671+10:002013-11-21T00:20:10.671+10:00I am glad you weathered it well.

We probably call it Liquid Propane or it serves the same purpose at any rate. linda marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201901762476827737noreply@blogger.com
