Tonker,
I remember when paraffin was 'in vogue' -there was a choice of of pink or blue. Esso had a advert on TV with a skit on 'smoke gets in your eyes'... recommending that people should buy 'Esso Blue'!
The 'Paraffin Man' came around our estate regularly in the late 60s and early 70s. A bit later you could still get it from many petrol stations.
