Ah kindling and firelighters are different. Firelighters are small blocks of paraffin about the size of an ice cube. You put them under a layer of kindling and then put coal/wood and newspaper on top of the kindling. Britain's damp cold climate means it takes a bit of an effort to get a fire that starts and continues properly.
