    Anything that's damp in the incinerator will create more smoke. :)

      I think I'm too much of a wimp to have a bonfire!!!! I'd be terrified of it getting out of control :-(

      Think ill just start a new hobby and send smoke signals to people all over :-)

          I find that putting the lid on creates more smoke. also I think it depends on what it is that your burning, privet smokes like a mo-fo whether it is dry or not but ivy that we burned didn't smoke that much at all. last year we had people coming to check our house wasn't on fire every time we lit it. embarrassing lol

            I hadn't even given a second-thought to burning my garden waste - are there usually any rules/regulations on garden bonfires and/or using garden incinerators in built-up areas :dunno:?
