I love coal tar soap!

Mrs D was recommended it by a Dr during pregnancy when she had some skin irritation. She can't stand it 'cause it "smells like fish".

It doesn't of course, it smells sorta smokey and piney. But she thinks anything vaguely smokey smells like fish cause she hates the smell of smoked fish. :D I on the other hand love it.

She still used it though, the effect on her skin outweighed the offensive smell clearly.

I had some of those book but I burned them all then collapsed weeping in the shower while 'The Crying Game' music was playing. :(

Although one of the illustrations in the 'how to' book suggests that a shared hat may be required.

Mismatched carbon* twill stripes (the diagonal lines in the weave). Hanging offence!

Didn't see the rest of the bike after getting stuck on that.

*that coloured stuff is actually 50/50 carbon and glass fibres, the glass is clear/white and hence shows up the coloured resin.
