Did i get the wrong stuff?

I had about 15 tonne of pine taking up space in my yard; It was supposedly spoken for but the lady couldn't take it quick enough so I had to get rid. I boarded up the forwarder turning it into a dumper and filled it a few times and chucked the lot onto the embers from the previous days big fire; it burnt superbly with no fireworks; oh well a few quids worth up in smoke :blushing:

You mean you would not spoil the nice pine with bits of oak

 

I mean my customers are either hardwood or softwood they don't take both and if I did mixed bags they would move to another supplier.

I had someone complain the logs I had delivered wouldn't burn and they wanted an exchange bag when I checked them they were 15% mc but oak so they refused to take anymore oak and now buy elsewhere. had another one yesterday complain the logs are too wet when I checked them was 17% mc sycamore birch beech mix then they refused to pay travelling costs and time 2hrs 80 mile round trip they also will be buying elsewhere in future.

they're probably moaning about it on some random forum as we speak :biggrin:
