I am in the process of clearing out our "pig sty" (it was one many years

decades. I have unearthed two items which nobody seems prepared to take
from me:-

i) CO2 cylinder. 5ft long job labelled distillers company! It is not empty.

Can you empty it in a controlled fashion?

If so, try the scrappies again, showing them the valve open.

ii) a 25litre drum containing some variety of petroleum spirit. The area
was once used for painting/spraying and much car maintenance.

Local dump usually has a section for this. if not, try a different
"local" dump (ie next town).

The local authority don't want to know. They suggested local scrappies
who are equally reluctant. Diageo are incommunicado.

Any suggestions gladly considered.
