Watch out buying hexy fuel tablets on Ebay. I thought I had done a brilliant deal buying a few hundred tablets for a few Euros from Germany. What I hadent realised was that the tablets were tiny (only 4 g)!
They were intended as fuel for toy steam engines. (neat little things - I had thought of setting one up to work as an electric generator - but I digress.
