I was in B&Q the other day and I came across (4litre in small print
ha ha) plastic cans of paraffin.
I suddenly thought aha, one could use that to eke out the diesel?
But when I divided the cost by four is was the same price as diesel.
So, as we all know, the cost of diesel (road fuel) is mostly tax, they
must be making a hell of a profit on this paraffin.
It was in the gardening bit for greenhouse heaters BTW.


Required for garden weed control flame wands as well.

Turnover will be (comparatively) low for that stuff.


I'm looking forward to the time when agricultural diesel is permitted in
*on road* vehicles:-)


I'm looking forward to the time when all diesel is banned from *on road*
vehicles. Horrible filthy stuff that creates lots of noise pollution as
well.
