radioactive logs

[Breezeblock]

i keep getting emails from foreign log companies from eastern europe and was thinking about contamination from chernobyl i wonder if this is possible any thoughts chaps

[TGB]

What sort of emails; ones of complaint; not willing to pay for delivery; offering decontamination, etc.?

[Breezeblock]

just emails offering deals on selling me container loads of firewood

[Midge]

Are you sure these are genuine emails and not spam or some sort of scam?

 

However if the logs are radioactive they may burn hotter

[Aunt Maud]

They may also come from the Boreal Forest.

 

That's something that needs protecting urgently.

[Davescay]

I'm fairly sure that if the logs had any signs of radioactivity it customs would soon pick up on it.

 

 

 

However if you were offered cheap glow in the dark logs from the chernobyl forest i might be a little concerned.

 

On a more serious reply, look at this map. Basically don't buy from near the pretty colours. Latvia, Lithuania which are the main suppliers will be fine

could be the ultimate long lasting log puts out enough heat without lighting it.

could be the ultimate long lasting log puts out enough heat without lighting it.

 

Just imagine basking in the warm green glow of the chernobyl long.

It makes me wonder how it is economic to transport firewood from Eastern Europe to Britain anyway. Most of the journey is overland, by lorry.

[TGB]

If people are willing to transport and sell such dubious things, I dare say there's other nefarious things they're willing to do, in order to get it done.

 

Perhaps, nicking the truck; not paying their workers; leaving this country with more goods of suspect origin, than was brought in. Just thoughts.
