Did two wheelbarrows of logs this morning. They're in the garage waiting to be split.
New neighbour (well, what passes for neighbours in this neck of the woods - he's half a mile down the road) was passing, heard the saw and came to introduce himself. Think he was kind of gobsmacked to see a short female wielding a large chainsaw with aplomb. He offered to help in return for half the logs for his own heating.
No thanks was my answer - politely, of course. My trees, my logs, my heating. That's why I planted the woodland in the first place.
Told him he was welcome to kindling and deadfall, but it's of such poor quality that after a couple of goes, I think he'll find it's more trouble than what it's worth.
Now waiting for my waffle batter to prove. Waffles are traditional here chez Casa Reynard for New Year.
