bamber 128 Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 boom boom boom boom Esso Blue!! IIRC the Esso Blue advert always used to appear in the advertising slot before the start of ATV's "Star Soccer" on Sunday afternoons. Just after "All our Yesterdays" and before the "Beer at Home Means Davenports". Cheers Bamber Bum, bum, bum, bum Esso Blue, How are you? Very well thank you, Dr Who!

Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 I can just imagine the health and safety mob these days if they saw where we used to get out gallon of Esso Blue from them days :o There used to be a hardware shop corner of Pym Street and Turner Street that sold it. Stuff was stored in the actual shop and the proprietor lived over the shop....No, it wasn't opened all hours either Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brian D 0 Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 When I moved out to Derbyshire, some 20-odd years ago, our local hardware store in Codnor sold it from a tank in the basement. You brought your own can and it was reasonably cheap. Nowadays, you buy pre-packed stuff which costa an arm and a leg, or a bottle (!) of "lamp oil" which is the same stuff with a pretty scent!

mick2me 3,033 Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 I am a fully Qualified Fire Investigator, and cringe when I see what people are buying in the supermarket. Precariosly balanced glass vases with wicks. Fill em with lamp oil and stand them on your telly! Shock Who the hell would want a molotov cocktail for a table lamp? Another tip, Buy some Tea Lights and place one on yer telly. It will burn down through the aluminium base, slowly burn and drop though to the TV setting it onfire from the inside. disguising itself to the untrained eye as a capacitor, when found. Wallah ! The TV gets the blame for the fire. tease Quote Link to post Share on other sites
