Ever had a tin of quality street or roses and wondered what to do with the left over tin. Well heres a possible tip,put some holes in the side and lid and put some charcoal in it and some fire lighters light it up put lid on it stays hot for hours and can always keep you warm and its re-usable,probably better after christmas as you get most sweeties then  |

Thats not bad, but heres a better idea, you bring your sweeties with you when fishing, we pinch your sweeties, and get nicely warmed up trying to outrun you on the beach.  |

I always take 1 can of lager & a box of fire lighters fishing with me.
Drink the lager then cut the top off the can about 1/3 of the way down.
Push this inside the base (careful you dont slice your fingers off) & drop a fire lighter inside. When one fire ligher is about to burn out, just drop another one inside and it lasts for hours.
Same idea as the roses tin but a lot smaller (and lighter) and keeps your hands just as warm.
