Kitchen-ish

- 2 Spoons
- 1 Pot
- 1 Pot Clasper - do not forget your pot clasper, it's worth the weight
- 1 alu-foil sheet that goes around stove and pot. Much faster.
Food
- 1lb Sosmix
- 2 Instanoodles with pot
- 2 Goulash soup
- 4 portions porridge – 2 after dinner, one late, one morning.
- 1 portion muesli
- 2 banana pudding
- 3 portions dried milk
- 1 portion ultra starter - with muesli and porridge a rocking brekkie
- 1 portion coffee
- 4 broth cubes
- 1 paper plate funnel
- 6 portions ultrabuffer @ 1 liter
Snacks
- Caffeine chocolate
- 8-10 Powergel

A secret for a reasonable sleep: When you arrive, eat a quick hot snack/starter - (Instanoodles/soup) then catch a few hours kip in the afternoon/early evening when it is still reasonably warm. Then cook again for main sos-mix meal. Then when you wake up bloody miserable at 4am, cook and eat porridge. Only 2 hours to reveille anyway!
