    Nicotine

    I've just cleaned an old radio.

    Previous owner was a heavy smoker & radio was a lovely brown colour all over.

    After judicious spraying with foam cleanser, it is now black again.

    The rag, however, is an evil brown colour.

    Wonder what condition his lungs were in...

    You should try washing a carpet of a house that was previously occupied by a smoker. Showed the water from the carpet cleaner to my niece and nephew - they went "Ewwww". Then I made them smell the water.

    I swear they will never smoke ever!
    If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

      Could you supply the carpet water or radio cleaning rag?
      May be able to re-claim the nicotine and re sell

        Nicotine

        When smoking was allowed on flights. During a plane service, the nicotine used to be scraped off the cabin roof with scrappers.

        Right just off for a roll up.

          You'd be better off removing the condensate from the walls of the Hobgoblin pub in Staines.

          Toilet door has a habit of breaking which can be a bit disconcerting trying to hold the door shut with one foot whilst trying to give birth to an otter....

              Great place. Convivial atmosphere, sophisticated clienteller. And how big are the barmaid's knockers : surely they're not real!

                  I reckon they could hold a gallon at least.
