Does seem rather a waste. I've every faith in UK Customs and Excise but, even with office parties being a bit of a rarity these days, with Christmas coming I've a feeling some might've been converted back to water before it goes down the drain.

Pulmonologists are sounding the alarm, for the use of fireplaces and stoves as a mean of heating in winter, since it is proved that they are now one of the main causes of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

Especially in large urban centers, has been observed since early November, that the air quality is deteriorating, especially in the evening.

Thanks for the warning.  It is pretty strenous shoveling snow - I remember being shattered in 2010 after shifting the stuff from the house to the garage, then the path in front of the front door, then the old lady's path opposite and even the entrance to the close where the snow ploughs on the main road had piled it up!
