Um, my chemistry knowledge may be getting rusty, but isnt 'vaseline' still a petroleum based accelerant?

BTW Jez, hows the CL4 trip planning coming along?

Did you find out if you are able to take Exxos or not in the end? :)

If I had a can of gasoline I think the issue with the weeds would have been solved a lot quicker:

Not fully sorted yet but looking hopeful so far.
I've not managed to get a final decision from my good lady yet but even if she does come along I should have room in the car for Exxos +1 other...

While we are on a roll...

My old next door neighbor was using a little flamethrower to get rid of weeds. problem is, he set his trousers on fire at the ankles. :lol:

He was ~85 though. (Now gone, bless him).
