I loved your bonfire, we couldnt start ours its still too green. we have been splitting wood with our splitter too. So much easier than with and axe! The cold has hit us and we have had our fire going for a week now.

One of my favourite cold weather smells.<br /><br />Sadly we have a wall heater, but we do have a wood fired BBQ out the back that makes the best burgers on. We get our wood from the neighbourhood too. People leave piles on their footpath after they've had a tree cut.Lishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12893600713172004711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-83401563050662863272012-05-02T12:02:56.968+09:302012-05-02T12:02:56.968+09:30I'm afraid we use reverse cycle air conditioni...I'm afraid we use reverse cycle air conditioning which is expensive and we have our gas log fire in the 'good room' - (no time for hubby to cut/split/stack wood). I must say we do stay lovely and warm (bedrooms have ducted heating) so I guess you pay for what you want. I don't think I would cope with a real log fire (having wood inside) if there were spiders....<br /><br />Cheers - JoolzJoolzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07490462580345458546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-29514023784831054512012-05-02T11:29:53.519+09:302012-05-02T11:29:53.519+09:30A stump splitter now there's a toy I think I w...A stump splitter now there's a toy I think I would like...We have been collecting wood throught hte year as well and there is some big pieces in there...I can't wait to light my fire but alas not cold enough yet....The Old Dairyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10806470355969512482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-6195194733687182392012-05-02T05:16:57.161+09:302012-05-02T05:16:57.161+09:30Hi Tania,it is going to be interesting for us this...Hi Tania,it is going to be interesting for us this year we removed our wood fire and we know we are going to miss it,but it was so expensive buying wood and we just did not get the time to go collect it last time.We have reverse cycle and we are going to put in a gas wood fire (looks like logs) lol but they may not happen until next year..anyway see how we go.carole johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721058683205450682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743532158600929042.post-76165557803613473582012-05-01T16:13:44.859+09:302012-05-01T16:13:44.859+09:30I was just wondering if I'll light ours tonigh...I was just wondering if I'll light ours tonight.
