What about the waxy residue? How are you still alive man?

You stole the words right out of my mouth! I'm all for paraffin wax evaporating into the ether (as is my scientific understanding) but mini babybel red wax all over my grate?! Surely not!

The heavy corrougated cardboard fruit boxes we bring the groceries home from Tescos in. Hard to tear up, but, man sur, quare firelighting stuff.

Same, always cardboard. only herself is forever ordering things and stuff on amazon so we have a constant supply of cardboard boxes delivered to our door! Haven't bought firelighters in years. If there is a day we have no cardboard I use the little bottle of map gas. Lights the logs in seconds and way handier than dragging the oxygen acetylene tanks into the kitchen!

You've forced to me to revise my mental picture of you!

I never use firelighters, just waste paper, packaging, cardboard etc, bit of thin kindling, away you go.

Best is the plain brown card or plain paper at the front, the waxy junk mail crap at the back of the fire.
