Translated, "Fair Enough"

 

I hope it also turned up a few more "interesting" results!

What's the purpose of all these questions? Market research or boosting your website SEO? Not an issue as such, just curious...

I was thinking the exact same thing. This sub forum seems like a protracted market research questionnaire these days.

2 Morso(e)'s fitted  and fired up the backend of 1997, I have forgotten the models.

Leave the kid alone, he's just trying to make the site a resource and let's face it this place is dead!  Outside of about a dozen people no one uses the site, or posts at least.  I find that strange given the growth in popularity of stoves there should be lots of people seeking advice before selecting, fitting, using, getting wood, maintaining, sorting little issues, seeking ideas on how to make things better and so on and so on.  Where are they?   Bowlie is just trying to get some activity, and if he learns a few tips to help his customers get better advice that's good.

Around 17 years on a Stovax Riva inset. Replaced a holed baffle and seals last year!

20 years on our 18kw aarow. It's been slightly warped over the years from running too hot so it's probably time to start looking at new ones but it's hard to find decent sized ones these days...

 

Edit: That's the only picture on my phone, don't worry it's from last year. ?

My pleasure.  You could work on your style though ?
