" . . .suggests soot in the air . . ." Oh yes, John, there was plenty of soot in the air alright! When we first emigrated to Australia in 1952, my mother could not get used to the Australian approach of leaving washing out in the rain. The soot-laden rain that she was used to would have ensured that the washing would have had to be re-washed. I clearly remember a black line at the extremity of the windscreen wiper arc in our little car, which was, of course, soot. I understand that domestic coal fires were since prohibited.
