Safety match - MM
Reading about the history of matches for this weeks MM safety theme was sobering. Today we take our safety for granted but in the 1800s the striking match was so dangerous a single box of matches had enough phosphorus to kill you.
Even today the safety match is classified as "Dangerous Goods".
Well, that was all a bit heavy. On a lighter note (pun intended) I wish you all a wonderful week as you prepare for your seasons holidays. HMM.
