After adding lighter fuel to an open fire...just because I like the whoooosh noise it makes when it ignites, Ive have had that little experience marred as it has taken over the nice smell of the apple log that was burning.
What wood do you think is the nicest smelling one for burning?
( oh waits for the onslaught of replies referring to the wood between the legs lol) |

"for me, I'd say Oak, can smell that all day, just gives the feeling of warmth and comfort."
Oh oak is lovely, never tried cedar though...tends to be what is around the garden, so burn walnut and apple mainly...and handfuls of pine cones. |

Love it down at my mums at xmas. They live in the middle of a wood and if the snow is on the trees its magical. Often go for my Sunday lunch and call asleep after with my feet up on the fender and blazing logs on the fire.

Pretty good i have to say but on the other hand it brings things home about my dad getting older and not able to do what he could.
Tell you what is great is toasting crumpets on a fork over an open fire. |

Sounds a bit like my folks place. Fortunately I don't have to do any chopping coz we're still using bits from the trees that fell in the storm in 87 |
