we call them "storm" lanterns down here, have had several over the years.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

I got 4 for £10 inc P&P from Amazon last year. It said "SMALL" in the title - dunno if they sent me the wrong things or not, but the 4 I got were about 10" tall!

Gave 2 to my mate, kept myself 2. I love 'em.

Search around on ebay and you can get them at different prices for larger amounts.

Id presume so as its oil, but havent tried it. I'll be trying a few different mixtures out when i get mine, just so as I know myself what'll work and what wont. Definetly dont want to leave it till the shtf to find out.
