You could make briquettes out of them for heating - hopefully they don't give a yellow colour to everything though.
Anybody use them for a wood burner?
I've seen things that turn old newspapers in to fire logs, so I suspect that yellow pages could be used too.
The problem is finding someone who still uses solid fuel for heating. Like many people, we now have gas central heating and when we redecorated took the chance to remove all the old fireplaces and brick them up. They weren't doing anything but getting in the way, and the cat kept trying to climb up the sitting room chimney :rotfl:0 -
Aye - I take off the cover and any glossy pages and give it to my foster rabbit to shred and throw around her playpen. She loves it0
