when was the last time you saw a Salamanca motoring around?.....

When the apprentice made a balls (technical term) of lighting it!

I told him to dip the rag in paraffin, wrap around the end of the stick and light it before shoving it through the Salamanca (Victorian garage heater invented by the devil with the sole purpose of killing mechanics when it blew up which they did with alarming frequency) flame check window.

He decided after it failed to light to pour petrol in through the window and try again... it blew the 6 foot chimney half across the workshop and got him on car valeting for a week!
