Alton's price: £6.95/20 = 35 pence per kilo

 

Oxford price: £9/25 = 36 pence per kilo

 

 

Difference 1 pence per kilo

 

 

Hardly the great North/South divide, surely ? :lol:

We use smokeless stuff called Calco. Dont know what type it is, but burns all night, and produces very little ash and loads of heat. It is a mixture of different sizes and textures - some bits look like black polystyrene, some look like large moulded lumps. It is a bu**er to light though.

 

15 euro for a 40kg bag collected from a local garage. I do recommend this, if it is available over there. I think it may be Polish.

Springfield Marina, River Lea, east London - £12.50 for a 25kg sack of Homefire ovals, and £12.50 for a 25kg sack of Phurnacite.

 

I also sometimes buy coal from a garage near my work in north-west London (Texaco Garage in Hendon) - £9 for a 20kg sack of Homefire ovals, and £7 for a 20kg sack of house coal.

 

Does anyone know of anywhere cheap in London with decent supplies - most garages charge astronomical prices!
