Post by: paul.lovejoy on 05 April 2013, 23:02:10
just been on SMSTS course etc bugger me

did you know

mix bleach and oven cleaner together and you will be dead in 2 seconds from poisioning fumes
( did not work on the mother in law)

also low energy bulbs they have mercury in them
chapped stepped on one bit of glass with mercury on it entered his bare foot got the glass out but not the trace of mercury, it ate his foot they managed to save the foot in the end as he woke up in bed to find large open gashes in his foot horrible stuff

to save the foot they had to vacum pack it with some substances equal to the pain of putting salt on an open cut.pain was extreme

so lets be carefull out there

Any idea how to recycle this new found fangled gadget or do we chuck it in land fill.

(As long as the beer cans are sorted?)

You'd be amazed what you can do with nothing but household chemicals :-X ;)

If you read toilet cleaner bottles it says not to mix them with another ;)
