    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • Whilst camping, everything fell into a heap in a gust of wind, and I thought, ‘There must be a better way than this”. [0015]
  • I decided to combine a stable cooker/burner stand, a work/food preparation area, a stable wash bowl holder, a storage cupboard for necessary items like pots, pans, fry-pan, plates, cups, knives forks, tea, coffee, matches, TIN OPENER, etc., and a good table for eating. [0016]
  • This move reduces the number of items carried to and from the site, yet enables everything to be ready in under one minute. It stores and transports in a trailer, 4×4, or utility /station wagon with ease and can be carried in a caravan or trailer tent. [0017]
  • It will also fit in the boot (trunk ) of a medium to large sedan car. [0018]
    • BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • See above [0019]
    • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE INVENTION
  • When closed it forms a box 80×40×70 Centimeters, with 5 detachable legs for support as shown in the extended drawing Page 9 [0020]
  • Opened, it forms a kitchen unit with sink, work bench, cooker, cupboard, and table As shown in the extended drawing page 8[0021]
    • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • When closed the invention is a box with measurements as shown above, which opens out to give the four elements of a kitchen (wash bowl, work bench, table, cooker (the cabinet itself forming a cupboard). [0022]
  • It has been designed to give ease of transportation to and from the site, quick and simple erection in 5 movements (basically positioning the legs ), and speed with which it can be used (under one minute plus gas bottle connection) [0023]
  • A door at the rear of the cabinet enables easy access without having to crawl under the Table [0024]
