My younger daughter & her husband live in a rented ex farm labourers cottage. The only form of heating is a woodburning stove. |

Well, they ARE surrounded by trees, but I don't think the landlady would be too pleased if they felled them all :-D |

Our only heating is a wood burner as well but they are brilliant. I cultivate a hobby of log spotting when on walks or in the car :-D |

I would think that the man who sells them logs might be able to get them a chopping block.He would know the people who cut down trees. |

Axe sounds great We usually use a large solid log or rather piece of tree as a chopping block. I presume they aren't near Worcester/Hereford as we could give them a good one? |
