Many a true word spoken in jest :lol:

Excellent!
I did like the one about the Wood Lover as well. We've had a wood-burner for a few years now up in Scotland. I wouldn't have believed it, but it's as easy to get obsessed about wood as it is about beer. (Mrs Hoppyland reckons even easier! :grin:)

You can't beat a good log burner. The wonderful sense of true craft heat. And the wonderful craft smell of efficiently burning hard wood, ash preferably. And the beautiful, mesmerising unpredictability of the burning flames... better than the bloody coal fire my folks used to choke us with!

PS It's minus 12 here tonight. I'd throw coal on our stove if we didn't have wood!

PPS I stand corrected:
