Our 5 year wood supply

 Fence repaired
 Made a start on stacking wood


Left a space for Beau to run through
Ex Pine tree
Thick slices & heavy
Beech slices

Bottom of meadow is looking better, I repaired the fence & made a start stacking wood. As you can see from the wood slices on commons side of fence, which is still our land the slices are too thick & heavy. Hopefully Monday 23rd December the tree guys are back to cut them up into manageable pieces. When cut they will be stacked meadow side of the fence. All of the wood will become seasoned & my project for the new year outdoors is to build a wood store close to the house to keep it all dry. The tree guys state it is best to leave it for a few months to let the rain wash it all down.
We have booked up the guy to give us a quote for the chimney liner & plate on the slate roof, sadly someone took one of the chimneys down on the house & this is the one above the study/shack! but the guy's firm has a cherry picker which will be able to park on the drive & make life easier. So hope in 2014 to start saving on heating bills at least for a few years to come.
