Stupid thing to do, not bring enough fuel for Trangia. I'm sure we're not the only ones to do that. If you've been in this situation please suggest places likely to stock standard EN spec gas cans or methods.

I've seen gas and meths in petrol stations and supermarkets. I can't remember which supermarkets stock camping fuel. Does anyone know? Tesco or Morrison supermarkets near here (Skipton). Do they have them?

Home bargains sell 500ml of meths for 99p

Go outdoors or cotswold for gas canisters. Amazon for panel wipe next day, also sell gas a bit cheaper.

Definitely not the first, done it myself...we won't be the last...
I've bought meths in Asda (big ones, not the little local ex-Netto ones).
+1 for b&q, Halfords sometimes have meths in the bodywork repair section.
If you're away from big towns with big supermarkets, small towns often have an old fashioned hardware store - saved me in Scotland...
