We had a log burner installed in the summer of 08 and have never regretted it. The whole issue of what types of logs/kindling and coal (ours can use either) comes into play and you meet some "interesting" types! Definitely something to have - comforting and nothing to do with the gas and electricity suppliers! |

I love lighting our fire - I'm not always successful as I sometimes get the firelighter/coal ratio wrong But it's the best thing to stretch out in front of it once it's going . . . we tend not to use wood as even dried logs spit and I have quite large gaps in my floorboards and the fire has been known to spit over the top of the guard; I just can't take the risk! |

I have a wood burning fireplace; used to use it regularly but the chimney needs sweeping and I keep forgetting to have it done. It would have been a godsend when the boiler was out. There is nothing like the smell of the burning logs and the beautiful flames dancing ,,,,,, |

My house does not have the facility to have an open fire but would I have one yes in a heartbeat.....and yes I can light them and light them well. Scrunched up news paper ....small very dry kindling and the right amount of coal....a knack I on occasion have got wrong but I start again it fascinates me fire....better than any TV programme and almost as good as a book....to me. |
