Re: Dutch ovens
Hello and welcome to a new experience in cooking. The point of a Dutch oven is that it is very efficient. You put coals or charcoal on the top and the bottom. The lid is designed for this. I can suggest two very good books. 101 Things to do with a Dutch Oveen by Vernon Winterton and Beginner's Guide...

Re: Welsh Bongo Bash 2016
It doesn't look as if the Wayfarer Inn is going to be ready. Lots of scaffolding and weather problems I think. My brother lives on the Barmouth Road near Harlech. Ps,Inn only 5 minute walk from site.
Barmouth
Members who were in Barmouth this year and members who are thinking of going next year.(a 5 star site),might be interested to know that the Wayfarer Inn will open next year. A retired builder who has sold his business has bought it and intends to renovate it. Let's hope it's open for us in May. This...

Re: insurance question
NFU have just quoted me £485 fully comp for a 1.4 Skoda Fabia. I have no issues etc other than I am over 75 and the stats say all over 75s should be treated as a poor risk.
