I emailed Empire - quoting the order number from their confirmation email - and they said sorry, but they had no trace of my order (so how come I got an order number then?). They said I should re-order, but now the £20 off code seems to have finished. Bah!

No, in my experience (and I've been using one for 20yrs) it does not "stink" the whole house outIt does impart a fragrant aroma - but no more than *any* method of cooking and far less in the base of BBQ's
Can't think why it would permeate the wardrobe~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
