(mostly filled with waste motor oils from all the local garages & service stations... ALONG with about 1,000 litres of POT_OIL ... being OUTLAWED a couple of years before - by the local "clean_air_acts" ... and were simply a rough mix of Kerosene, Deisel & various waste_oil "mixtures" ALL DONATED FOR FREE. (As actually - this was the ONLY method.. that allowed the orchardists to dispose of that NOW useless "crapload" of waste_oil) Oh.. footnote…
