Been to a job this morning  to clean carpets with soot / carbon deposits from firemen's boots following a bedroom fire. Clients had been using linseed oil and left the oil soaked cotton rags on a plastic bag while they went to have lunch. According to the fire brigade, linseed oil, when left to it's own devices and on cotton rags, can be subject to exothermic chemical reaction within the rags. No doubt other's have heard of this, but it's a new one on me.

Thank you Hector,;a bit further north, between Stoke and Crewe. Large village, small town. Ideal during lock down as plenty of different walks to help keep the pounds off. I blame the biscuits ;D

May I wish you a long and happy retirement 8)

Mostly solutions but also a few other selected products. Try to be as eco friendly as possible but, as we all know, sometimes we have to use the nuclear option.
