That's odd. Works here fine with  IE, Firefox, Opera and Chrome

It works for me instantly - but I could not get it to go into an attempted posting of it earlier on.

I picked up my Yellowstone cook gear from Tesco today. Can't fault it. Very lightweight, well made  and practical. Good call Vaughan.  :

Looks like the set I bought forty years ago, lighter though. I use the small pot and the pot grip to this day

[Wildfisher]

The pot grip is a really good idea. With cheap pots fixed fold away handles can come adrift. These pots have no appendages, they are simple pressed alloy. Nothing to go wrong, no non stick coating  to get damaged. Scour them with a handful of loch gravel if you like!

At £8 there is nothign to lose. Like you Sandy I have a similar set that dates back to the '70s  even has a kettle. Still perfectly serviceable, but a bit too heavy and bulky.

[Fishtales]

Probably the same set Fred, mine had a kettle too. I only use the small pot, and the grip to hold it while I eat out of it. The kettle I replaced with the Trangia one which is smaller and lighter. As I said, it is wide enough to go over the end of my rolled up tent so doesn't take up all that much space

Both the pot and the kettle are 138 grams each.
