I remember doing a "Fire Inspection" of Filton block and there was a strong and noticeable smell in the corridors .......

A young "gentleman" (?) who had an clapped out motor with a leaking fuel tank had decided he couldn't afford to lose the petrol he had just put in ..... so he used 3 firebuckets to store the stuff !!!

He gave several senior folks a serious listening to, and was VERY lucky to actually be allowed to continue the course.
