What useage?

This site
http://www.fireservice.co.uk/safety/extinguishers
says that powder is unsuitable for offices and living accommodation.

And this youtube link suggests a small extinguisher may not help with
car fires.

When I did fire marshalling at a race track, we were under strict
instructions not to start attacking a fire until there were 2 x 9 litre
foam (to protect the driver) and 2 x 9kg dry powder extinguishers (to
attack the fire) ready to use. Anything less was not likely to work,
although I have seen 2 x 5kg CO2 successfully extinguish an engine fire
in a road car - both were needed.

You would be wrong then. Dry powder. Easily checked by looking at
website.

Red body with a blue band. Probably made in Israel but should work as long
as the pressure gauge is in the green.
It is not unknown for them to lose pressure.

Somewhere you can buy a baby for £250

and a 2-bed terrace for £30k. You can get 2 or 3 families in that.

Well it's south of Scotland:-)

When I was in Slovakia and the Czech Republic I was told that they were a
bunch of lazy alcoholics (the Roma not the Scots) and that under communism
if they did not work they were jailed. All the Slovaks and Czech hated them
with a passion. Plus the usual stories about incest etc

What the hell were they cleaning it with - a battalion of midgets, all
armed with toothpicks, picking up each grain of extinguishant
individually and carefully wrapping it in gold leaf?

And noticed that it was the insurers who bought the case, not the vicar.

In which case, the insurers really outght to know about these things and
perhaps have suggested the use of foam...
