Fair point.

 

But looking back, the first member who responded with a reference that the customer may have been a female of the species was Ella. So I think we can breathe a sigh of relieve guys that it is'nt our chauvanism thats branded the customer a "she". After all who are we to argue with a womans intuition?

It was in fact a He. Strange conversation - he has a large house in one of the most affluent areas of South England and was complaining that putting an extension on the house had cost him a fortune QED I should provide him with cheaper wood than everyone else. Was beginning to lose patience when he said it would be cheaper to get logs from a fuel station. 8 logs of wet fir for £3.99 against 22 logs of seasoned too dry hardwood delivered to his wood store down the end of the biggest garden in history for £6.00 and this guy is a businessman.

 

I thank you all for your kind comments - I am ordering the hottest curry I can handle tonight and tomorrow morning I am going to christian a few of his bags before delivery - I can assure you that they will burn like hell.

 

Ah - that feels better any more ice cubes matron

When I had my stoves put in an old Irishman said,

 

"its best if the wood is wet because it burns for longer"

 

and then a firewood seller told me that last week he was chopping some very dry conifer and an old boy came up to him and picked up a log and smelt it and said,

 

"you cant beat ash"

 

????????????????????? lets face it, everyone else isnt as anal as we are about wood ... THANK GOD

one of our lads had an agrument with someone that the logs wed delivered were sycamore and not as we were saying beech, he finally had to admit defeat when we said, well we felled them and they were out of a beech woodland - he couldnt comment anymore
