    Not sure if this is a good deal? Get 12 packs of briquettes and half a crate for approx £130?

    My eyes bleed at the price of kiln dried wood , no matter what the season

    Mostly all I can buy is forestry wood, softwood, which is soaking so I buy a load ( sold as dry) not expecting to burn it for 2 years. I have 2 years storage, in wood sheds and on raised pallets in the car port

    Wood is not cheap :(

    Most of my wood is free.

    If you don't count the time chopping it down, sawing it to lengths, dragging it to the car, chopping it up shorter at home and splitting the bigger bits.

    Then waiting two years for it to season.
    If it sticks, force it.
    If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.
