Flapjack

+"If you are not doing anything else for expo at the moment you should definitely make flapjack. Post what you are going to make so people know the remaining quantity needed. [Recipes] with plenty of syrup are good as it keeps the flapjack together instead of making muesli." Hayden, 2018. +

How much to make?

-Past usage suggests you need somewhere between 1.6 (2012) and 2.4 (2007) pieces* of flapjack per person per top camp night, and that the average expoer spends 50% of their expo nights at top camp (though looking at either the beir book or recent expo accounts would confirm this). The hard bit is guessing (from the partly complete WhoWhen page) how many people nights there will be on expo... +Past usage suggests you need somewhere between 1.6 (2012) and 2.4 (2007) pieces* of flapjack per person per top camp night, and that the average expoer spends 50% of their expo nights at top camp (though looking at either the beir book or recent expo accounts would confirm this).

*That is assuming 15 pieces of flapjack per A4 baking tray (500g of oats worth).

-You will need to consult what food has been left at top camp and in underground camps the previous year. It is also very useful to see what was bought in previous years: how much and where from. +You will need to consult what food has been left at top camp and in underground camps the previous year. + +It is also very useful to see what was bought in previous years: how much and where from. Old (and very old) lists of what has been left behind are also useful to remind you of all the other food items that are needed or useful such as Branston pickle, sultanas, chili sauce, pasta & Mornflakes (basecamp) etc. +Nearly every previous year has a pair of lists for what has been left behind, going back to 2004. Not all are listed here.

Footnotes

When making notes for next year and the people who will do this after you, please be more precise than your predecessors. How much is "one large drum-full" of packet soup for god's sake.
