I despair,

On our private account we have some "Ceramic decorative wood effect logs for use on open flame gas fires" for sale.

Just had a question, "are these plastic or wood ?" Should this guy be allowed near gas ?

And you reply was "They are made of plastic, filled with Butane to keep your fire going longer"

I'm gonna say yes.... as long as it's an air-tight room, or he likes to smoke whilst fitting these.

Sometimes you have to ask yourself, "should these people be allowed to have offspring?"

I do think some people make a hobby of asking stupid questions....

But on the rare occasions I go out shopping with swmbo, I love embarrasing her in the pound shop she buys fag lighters from, by asking assistants how much stuff is......

Decorative logs? For a gas fire? So you are openly selling FAKE logs on ebay?

I'd tell him you have both 'wood' and 'plastic' ceramic logs, which would he prefer?

Tell him yes and you need a metric adjustable to fit them

And a long stand to make sure they're aligned right.

Also keep a bucket of steam handy in case they do catch light
