We have brought our Tilley lamps back to life. Each of these is worth £120.
All they needed was a bit of TLC and some new washers.
They run on paraffin and that is much cheaper than gas so it will save us a fortune (a couple of hundred quid this summer).
They give a lovely soft light and keep their pressure for 2 or 3 hours before they need pumping again.
And now we just have to teach the scouts how to light them!
