The lighter side of life
So my zippo handwarmer turned up today. What a genius invention. No
longer will I have to fiddle about boiling gel handwarmers in a pot and
putting them in my bag for use in a painful cold hand situation only to
discover that somewhere along the line, the little disc has been
squeezed and my handwarmer has been merrily warming itself
without my knowledge and is now completely useless until I next
reach a pot of boiling water.
Light of heart, I skipped off to the nearest large retail outlet to ask for
some lighter fluid with which to operate my fabulous new handwarmer.
Only for the wee wifie to tell me that they don't sell it and that it is
really difficult to get lighter fluid these days. Whit? I thought lighter
fluid was one of those things that is just constant, like Kelloggs
Cornflakes or Dick Van Dyke. What do you mean I can't get lighter
fluid? How do people light things these days? You can't light candles
with an iPhone you know.
So I now have a shiny pocket ornament until such time as I find a local
purveyor of lighter fluid. It is available online but I'd rather just be able
to go out and buy some when I need it, not work out that I may need
some several days hence. Huff.
