Toxic church

This can't be good - Report: air inside UK churches is toxic

Church air was found to be considerably higher in carcinogenic polycyclic hydrocarbons than air beside roads travelled by 45,000 vehicles daily. It also had levels of tiny solid pollutants (PM10s) up to 20 times the European limits.

Probably the churches tested were large and seeker-sensitive with huge numbers of chain smokers and ex-smokers, which accounts for the excessive levels of toxicity.

Hmmm... no, that's not quite the content of the report.

You know those nice long romantic candle-lit dinners women tend to be fond of? I just found another reason I don't like 'em, - apart from the fact I can't see what I am eating, that is.

Of course, Trish. She lives with me, doesn't she? ;)
