Having had a stressfull few months lately I purchased some joss sticks complete with a nice wooden holder. Boy they don't half work.
The aroma I have at the minute is called "Dragon Blood" of all things. They last for about an hour and really do make you unwind.
You can get all sorts of different ones from cannabis to the original Indian "NAGA"
Anyone else use them ?
BBF...drug free

We use something similar, incense made from Cade wood (Juniper family) has been made in Provence for centuries. Pleasant smell, natural antiseptic and a very effective insect repellent. If you have ever visited or stayed in a traditional Provençal house you would recognise the smell immediately.
Vinyl, joss sticks.... anybody still wearing their loon pants?

Ha strangely enough I was burning some joss sticks today while listening to Ravi Shankar

I had loon pants but doubt I could squeeze into them today with a burgeoning waist.

Ha ha, me too but, a chap did cut a dash in purple velvet loon pants, platform boots and the classic afghan coat, smelling sweetly of patchouli oil, girl bait, pure b****y girl bait...

Did you know that the bell bottoms were originally a naval thing... allowing them to be rolled up easily when coming off or jumping on to landing craft?
