We got the wood but only a small garden & fond if we chop it down to size it rots quicker so it's all out there in 5' lengths

Sadly not. I love a real fire. I used to spend hours after school chopping kindling for the coal fire when I was a kid.

likewise, let loose with an axe as a kiddie to chop up logs

Nothing like a real coal / log fire. Sadly my current house doesn't have one

Yep, I keep my chainsaw in the boot on the off chance I happen across a fallen limb. But anything I cut will be for next year

The first thing I did when I bought my first house was rip the old gas fire out and put a fireback and grate in.

I'm supposed to be doing my sisters when I can pull my finger out and get over there and sweep the chimney.

I've just installed two log burners one normal, one jacketed and connected to underfloor heating.

Hopefully will be a mild winter and will save me an awful lot of chopping

this and next years wood is stacked and dried, the winters for the last 3 years have been so mild the heating has hardly been on..

global warming contributed to by over 1 million homes now in the UK having log burners/open fires?

We have a small burner in the kitchen which is connected to our hot water system so if it stays mild our leccy bill won't go too high, but we still put a heater on low in the girls room.

No wood burner, but I did have to break out the electric heater last night. It was really cold.

We don't have any heating in the house other than a couple of storage heaters.

But I love sitting in the garden in winter with the fire pit looking at the stars.

I've found confusing deep heat with lube can be a bit of a wood burner....

No burning wood is actually carbon neutral providing your using sustained sources

Mind you if you've spent an hour chopping logs with an axe you'll be so hot you won't need the log burner on, or go to the gym... Although I have found it increases my thirst for a pint

Well if I'm honest that's not quite what I had in mind . At the moment I have an electric fire and surround,but it's just not working for me. I'd love to take it out and have a proper fire and a great focus point to the room

We live in a small Essex village in an old timberframed weather boarded farm workers cottage. One year we were out front gardening and a bunch of loud American tourists (heard them before saw them) came into our "quaint" village. S really doesn't do loud very well & one very loud Texan lady was heard by us as she approached "My what a quaint house my kitchen is bigger" chuckle, chuckle then she asked S how old it was...

"We still owned you when it was built" was his gruff response..She didn't ask anything else..

Ah yes. Logs need to be dried out.

Like you would love a log burning fire. Will save up and put one in soon.

Gas central heating here, but mums heating and hot water runs off the fire, so have spent several days at hers over the summer making sure she has enough to last and cutting it to size. Being good friends with a tree surgeon means a good supply, so she's all set even if it's a really shit winter.

Open fires aren't really as efficient, you lose more heat up the chimney than what goes in your house.... That also goes for when the fire isn't lit but the heatings on

S spent three days helping a local farmer cut down six fifty foot poplars last year, it's stacked on a row of 5' lengths on the farm waiting for when we need it, They took another three down at the beginning of this year but we need to mix timbers as the poplar is a pain on its own.

Sexy, pics coming your way in a mo..
