Default asbestos

Thanks, Phil
I'll follow this via local websites and report back. Glad that this board probably isn't the worst stuff! Hopefully the asbestos sheet garage roof that I drilled and cut back in England in the 60's wasn't too bad either! Also, do you remember stuff called Rawlplug Putty that was asbestos fibre mixed with plaster that you spat on and mixed in your hand for hole filling?!

I'm also a steam engine nut and I recall those 10,000 or so steam railway engines that were scrapped in the UK in the sixties - all of them had asbestos boiler lagging that was pulled off by hand! Poor sods who did that!

Cheers
David
