Oh, you mean for your stove?
Come and cook with me or my brother on the itinerary.
And we can try the alcohol where it is meant for...
arie,
you sound like just the resource I need. I'm arriving at Schiphol and heading directly for Den Helder by train with my bike. I'll probably stay at a guest house for the night and then head out down the North Sea Route. I plan on camping, but I'll need to buy stove alcohol. Where can I buy that? Here I buy it from the hardware store. They used to call that the iron mongers in UK, but now it is the DYI. In Canada we call it methyl hydrate, what is it called in Netherlands?
As to cooking with you and bro', I guess it depends what you're cooking. You would be surprise what I can cook up with my Trangia. (nudge, nudge, wink, wink)
