So today after many months of rebuilding a brick arch (twice), lots of pointing, casting a concrete slab and cutting reclaimed slate tiles, we finally have the first of two new wood burners installed.
Its nearlly as exciting as getting a new bike 😆

Now all i need to do is fix the oak beam for the mantelpiece and plaster then we're set for winter. Lets hope we don't have an indian summer or i won't be able to light it 😯
10 Nov is D day for us. Can't wait...
After the initial burn to get it up to temperature I now have to wait till it's cooled down enough to touch by hand then re-light it. The suspense is killing me. It's like Christmas Eve for a 5yesr old 😆
