In November 2008 I had an idea - burn logs to provide heat and visual enjoyment. It was a simple idea and as it's turned out it's been fairly simple to achieve. Tonight I lit my first fire and burnt my own seasoned logs - and it was fantastic.
Picture 1: Ready for the off - fire stacked up using the "top down" method - basically the biggest logs at the bottom, followed by smaller logs and kindling and "sloppy knots" newspaper. By far the best method for a good long lasting fire.
Picture 2: Early days - the paper burned off, the kindling well in and the smaller logs catching.
Picture 3: "El Scorchio" - still some flame but getting down to the real heat of charcoal logs.
