Feb. 14th, 2017 04:24 pm So tired today. Asthma. We had a bout of fog a week or two ago and that trapped all the polution and set off a bad attack and I'm still not fully over it.
Seems to be a lethal combination of diesel fumes and wood-burning stoves that's causing the UK to breach clean air legislation with appalling frequency.
Funny thing really - I used to think wood-burning stoves were a great idea. That was before I discovered how lethal the fumes are from the best-designed stoves, let alone the worst ones. Wood fires are nasty things and bonfires that have random stuff tipped on them are worst of all.
I was out walking a couple of days ago and was reacting to a bonfire long before I actually saw it.
Let wood rot down in your garden if you can. Be nice to beetles. Only burn it if you've no other option. Your lungs will thank you.
