    Hi Bob! No not lit yet! Waiting for dh to bring some Paraffin home!

    Fill them up, wait till it goes dark, close all the curtains, turn out all the house lights, and fire them up.

    You will be amazed at how much light they throw out.

    Also, the light is soft and relaxing.

    I often fire mine up for half an hour, on a winter's evening, and sit and relax.

    Also, the smell of the paraffin burning, takes me back to my childhood. :cool:

    Hi everyone I am thinking of getting one of those wee camping stoves, and thank you for whoever posted about it. I have a bad memory, sorry about that.

    Do you mean one of these?

    Wow, someone's been getting ready for the end of the world as we know it. Congratulations - you're as well equipped as they come! Just remember that those in the know are often called upon to lead in desperate times...

    However, if I were one the group being guided by me, I'd break away and take my chances alone, because, based on that game, I seem to something of a Jonah. :D

    Would someone go in and do that test making all the wrong decisions and see what the result is? I did it and got the same as all and bob and I cannot believe we ALL put the same answers?

    If this quiz were reality, you would have already made plenty of fatal mistakes. If you intend to survive the end of the world as we know it, you better get cracking and get yourself some survival skills!
