The recent £6m fire has shown this to be the case beyond doubt. I can

Good on Poundland. Time these things were banned completely.

Much as I don't like to jump on the bandwagon of banning everything
that might pose a danger, I have to agree.

You are floating naked flames up into the air, of course when they come
down there is going to be a fire risk. Pretty as they are, I think it's time
for an end to this, just not worth the risk.
