In hindsight the guy was really sketchy on giving details. I did check they were seasoned and ready to use though.
If I sold "firewood" that you couldn't use to make a fire I'd feel pretty crap.

Doubt he'll be in business long without repeat customers.

If there is a way to leave a review you may speed up this process

I've left a review of the firweood. It's just a sideline for them to selling animal feed etc, so they'll stay in business with that and keep getting unsuspecting fools like me to buy the wood as a one off.

I'm getting bike withdrawal symptoms. During the week the forecast for Sunday looked reasonable and a chance to get out on a ride. Of course the forecast got worse as the week wore on.
So in short I didn't bother. It's not raining (for once) but it's wet, gloomy, misty and cold.

Let’s keep an eye on the weather this week, maybe try for a ride out then?

I'll be donning the waterproofs tomorrow. I have a job across in Trefeglwys to finish in the morning.

I think I'm doomed Gary. I've only got tomorrow and Tuesday free. Maybe I'll postpone the SORN till the end of December.
