Re: ideal fires

Hi Morfe

I don't wanna get involved in a guesstimating competition either!

I didn't mean a campfire, though, I meant the fire that heats my home. To gather enough wood even to keep a small fire burning all night is a good couple of hours work. It is enjoyable work, though, as you say!

A lot of it comes down to whether the wood is green or not. Dry wood burns in no time at all.

You see that guy on the cover of the Led Zeppelin LP? I reckon he's got enough wood on his back to keep his fire burning for about a night. Personally I'd want some larger logs as well, though, if I was him (I do feel like him sometimes!).
