ANOTHER CO death reported. please be careful/sensible!

[SeaShellsInTheMoonlight]

just highlighting this again as I think it's the third ive seen in the press this year. BBC are reporting a woman died in north Wales. Her husband and children are recovering according to reports.

I'll try and link to the article.

Depends on where the source of CO is located. If it is in a small room like a utility room with no ventilation it could build up considerably. It also relies on you being studious about unpacking it and putting it back where it is usually located.

How many people unpack as soon as they get home? Just seems to me to be more sensible to have a separate alarm as part of your camping kit if you intend having a gas powered light or heating or cooking in part of your tent.

Re: my emailing Department of Health about a poster campaign aimed at campsites.

Apparently, and I'm sure this makes sense to somebody, it isn't the DoH remit, I should instead contact Defra (Environment, Food and Rural Affairs).
