Default Clearance above lit candles

So they don't care about the soot or if there are any people near them
causing a draught to push the flame toward flammable items or indeed
like last years xmas lunch in a pub, whether the whole group are blind
and either burn their clothes as they reach or themselves then.
To me candles are a safety hazard, they should always be contained in
something non flammable so the flame is below the rim and hench it can
be put out fast.

They also pong.

A restaurant in Derby had a serious fire due to a tea light.
