My elderly neighbour & his son (who are not exactly DIY competent) has
painted their bathroom floorboards with creosote, yes creosote!, and
their next door neighbour has complained of the smell. He is quite
rightly concerned about his, as he has 2 young children who are
constantly breathing the fumes.

You do realise that the legal nazis will be knocking at his door, that
creosote is now then spawn of the devil and hence illegal.

Bit of a bugger, innit
