Which is useful, because a two-ounce pack can dry out before I finish it. So I load the tin and reseal the pack.<br /><br />It also fits in a shirt pocket, which a two-ounce tin won't. Unless you have a huge shirt pocket, of course.<br /><br />I should have said lighter <i>fluid</i>. 'Fuel' usually gets translated as the gas canisters. The Zippo fuel/fluid isn't pressurised, it's just a little can of petrol or some kind of burny liquid anyway.<br /><br />I haven't tried running a Zippo on old chip fat. Could be fun. Nobody will mind the smell because we've been turfed outside anyway.Leg-ironhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04932361799889315359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2170981338945747646.post-18592204687910174642011-09-17T00:19:54.305+01:002011-09-17T00:19:54.305+01:00@Mark Wadsworth

Or certainly as far as ours is concerned. <br /><br />I have a question for Leg or Timbone, what manner of pound shop is that? Just yer local pound shop or one of the chains like "Poundland" or "99p stores"? Those tins look absolutely lovely, I've got to get myself one.

Now me and the missis stock up with Bull brand ultra slim filters, red Rizla (or Bull if Rizla are out of stock), and we each have handsmoe tins with no anti smoking corrosion. Careful though, a lot of them have ganga leaves on them!<br /><br />Certain things seem to fly under the OCD radar.
