Decent petrol stoves are good. I can run mine safely in the bell end of
a small tent, although that's reserved for when it's ****ing down.

Bah - petrol's horrid stuff to have in a tent. Go for paraffin every

Don't need to prime my stove :-)

I'd probably use neither for a big stove though - gas seems to be the
answer there.

Nah, our Coleman win burner petrol stove is much better than any of your
normal gas stoves.
