Titanium Grill

boundless voyage titanium grill and cover
compared in size to the stainless counterpart

Another grill turned up yesterday, this one from Boundless voyage through Amazon. Its getting hard to find titanium products from overseas brands due to the embargo’s. So I grabbed this one while I could to check out using titanium vs stainless steel. After testing a few titanium pots Ive gone back to stainless. Too many hot spots. id like to see if the grills have the same issues. I’m happier having heavier products because I’m not hiking.

I’m wondering if the Expedition Research, the Boundless Voyage and the Pathfinder are all made in the same factory and re-stamped with different logos.

Squirrel Grill

April 22, 2026 / / 0 Comments

The Squirrel grill turned up today. The brand is either “Hellfire or Lord and Field” rebranded under Battle Box. I was intending to have one of these custom made through Etsy from England but I couldn’t turn down free international shipping from Amazon and I didn’t have to order extras, everything came with it. I’m designing a small cooking area for the backyard to start cooking outside.

Ive always known these as Squirrel Grills

The front pocket contains the 3 uprights and the pot holder. The rear pocket contains the 2 grills.

ASIO Amendment Bill

April 11, 2026 / / 0 Comments

What the bill actually does: Removes the sunset clause — these powers are now permanent

Allows compulsory questioning of children as young as 14

Lets the Attorney-General personally issue questioning warrants — no court approval required

Makes it a criminal offence to tell anyone (including your family) that you’ve been questioned

Gives ASIO the power to reject your chosen lawyer and severely restricts what your lawyer can do or say during questioning

Strips away your right to silence — you must answer their questions or face jail

This is not about catching terrorists anymore.

This is about giving an intelligence agency the power to secretly drag any Australian in for interrogation without suspecting you of any crime.

106 politicians just voted to hand ASIO these powers.

Only 8 had the courage to vote No.

Your right to remain silent?

Your right to proper legal defense?

Your right to know when the state is targeting you? Gone. Eroded. Normalised.

This is how freedoms die — not with a bang, but with a quiet division in Parliament House.

Share this widely. Australians need to know what just happened behind closed doors.

Purslane, Portulaca oleracea,

April 10, 2026 / / 0 Comments
My backyard now a carpet of Purslane

Purslane, Portulaca oleracea, is a common weed that packs a lot of nutrition. It has the highest Vitamin A of any leafy vegetable and the highest Omega-3 content of any plant. Learn how to identify this plant to make sure you aren’t picking the poisonous look-alike, spurge.

I haven’t been of the right mindset of late to get back into bushcraft with two surgery’s coming up. However one of my careers mentioned he liked eating the weed in my backyard on salads but couldn’t remember the name of it and that started me looking back into edible weeds. We finally figured out what it was. Purslane ! Most of the backyard is covered with it. Looks much better than the dead grass. Under this rental lease I’m not allowed to have a garden, dog or anything else other than dead grass and mud. One of my regular careers is from Palestine and is a great source of edible weed knowledge. There’s also Mallow, Thistle and Plantain.

Nail in coffin for ADF recruiting

April 9, 2026 / / 0 Comments

1. We send them to war with rules of engagement that make their work impossible.

2. We abandon them when they get back home with a dysfunctional DVA and a total lack of empathy for their PTSD.

3. We persecute the best among them with endless years of investigations, trial by media, and the never-ending threat of prosecution.

4. Our politicians have the gall to stand up on ANZAC day and speak of their courage in the face of the enemy, whilst being their enemies right here at home.

On top of this they say the public isn’t responsible enough to own firearms , yet they want us to go to war

They’ve spent how many million in persecuting Ben Roberts Smith that could have been spent on supporting returned services. 300 million !

The only war criminals are the Ministers that sent our military overseas to fight.

If this trial goes ahead and BRS is convicted and a precedent is set, the Australian Defence Forces are finished.

I once thought if we went to war , even disabled I would have turned up to do something. Wash dishes whatever in support. NOT NOW.

Hang your head in shame Allah Albanazi.

Why aren’t Howard, Bush and Blair in prison.
