2 bring a chair

joking aside i think all ADV bikes and tourers should have a food warmer incorporated in the exhaust. if they can fit in a bleedin great catalyser that nobody wants they can find room for a compartment to fit a standard sized tin.

+1 on the film cannisters - they're great for keeping chopped herbs in as well if you are travelling for a while and planning on cooking for yourself.

When we were travelling in France I used to buy a couple of Pain Au Chocolate in the morning and keep them in my tank bag whilst my mobile phone was in there charging - it produced just enough heat to warm them so they were even tastier when we stopped for 2nd breakfast

always buy a tent you can kneel up in and pee outside the door...thus avoiding rain getting dressed and if your quick not too many midge bites

Use one of these 'Pour & Store' bags and you don't even have to get out the tent to pee.
