You sometimes see raw linseed oil in chemist's shops. Does anyone know what its other use is?

He didn't ask for Sports Direct, he asked for forum sponsors...

Seeing as it can spontaneously combust and generally reacts exothermically, I should imagine it can be used as some sort of deep-heat type muscle rub.

Looks like it has antioxidant and anti-cancer properties

Only oil that is food grade.  Not sure what happens if you dring the stuff that isn't, but I should imagine it may not be all that good...

No chance of a linseed oil chutney making competition, then?

Not really, I don't think.  My feelings on this have been made well known on here in the past...

If everyone always recommended Sports Direct over forum sponsors, we may not have a Custom Bats Forum for much longer!
