Camp pie is to be eaten in tents.

 

[gibbo]

Camp pie is to be eaten in tents.

What am i going to do with you Ben? :2fun: you dont eat in tents you sit around the camp fire and eat. Tents are for sleeping or hiding from ugly animals nothing like sitting around a campfire smelling the food cooking and having a yak :biggrin:

 

[benny1982]

Gibbo it is also nice taking in the sea air.

 

[duckweed]

So what is Camp Pie? Bully Beef or what?

 

[moggie57]

[duckweed]

And that means?

 

[gibbo]

Gibbo it is also nice taking in the sea air.

Totally agree with you Ben. I have the best of both worlds really. Where i live is sort of the slower type country town life and only about a hours drive and im at the coast for that sea air.

 

[gibbo]

So what is Camp Pie? Bully Beef or what?

[duckweed]

We used to have corned mutton. It always tasted like salty cardboard to me.

 

[p.risboy]

Any way, Kenyan fella hasn't got back to me, so I can assume that I've got his ficticious money in my ficticious bank account.:biggrin: :biggrin:

I wish....!!!!

It would buy a lot of spam, Camp Pie, Horse whack ??, Corned Mutton and bully beef though.:2fun: :2fun:
