    Cheers!

    The Siberian Tiger above the fireplace is a work by Canadian artist, Robert Bateman and the Lion/Lioness ink on rag paper is an original piece by a former girlfriend long lost, but not forgotten.

    Does the iron help to warm up the stove/draft, prior to lighting?

    Welcome to the forum Bob.

    I like the wood in the shopping carts! Easy to move around. Sounds like your job is a good one for wood burners as we understand getting wood over there sometimes can be a bit testy.

    My wife's maiden name is Woolston and if you look at the map of England you will find a town names Woolston. Yes, that is where her relatives came from many moons ago. It's a small world.

    On the subject of wood gathering and burning, you might find this helpful: Primer on Woodburning by Backwoods Savage
