    I prefer a nice warm fire, crackling logs, sparks dancing up the chimney...

    Nice company and ambiance and soft lighting.

    If the looney greens have their way we'd be absorbing artificial heat, it's heat but it's not the same as fire..

    For heat, it has to be the sun on my face on a calm day.

    Fire wise, it's a well banked up coal fire with the curtains drawn and low lighting.

    The greens have lost the run of themselves. I can heat the house with the oil, or any of their greener alternatives, but it's not cosy.

    I just cover myself in deep heat and stand next to the radiator.

    Sitting at the poolside bar in Lanzarote in my swimming trunks at about 5 in the evening sipping a tall, cryogenic Estrella and thinking about where to go for dinner.

    Regarding the house, I have a little Cylon fella near the (95% efficient) gas boiler who keeps the place cosy for me according to a handful of 'stats around the place. I had a gas fire in the fireplace in the living room, I ripped it out so I can put down a few lumps of coal at times like Christmas.

    A big load of Smokey coal (I have bags of it I got cheap up north ) and loads of turf. It's also nice to burn the rubbish out back and warm your hands from the burning plastic.

    I'm feeling this post. I was actually in PDC doing exactly as you described during the summer

    Nice coal fire in my stove over a glowing base of Aldi milk cartons.
    Toasty.

    I've a friend who keeps duck's and chucks, when one dies she reckons the duck's burn better than the chucks.

    She throws them in the stove, she has a big Norwegian stove and up they go....

    I love the warmth of body heat. Cuddled up on a cold winter morning with hailstones hopping off the window.

    Heat from a stove I guess. Not too fussy whats in it as long as it burns.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,543 ✭✭✭facehugger99


    When you're on holiday and you've gotten out of the sea and are lying on the beach - there's a crossover point when you go from being cold to warm, it only lasts a few minutes, but that's my favourite bit.

    The sauna and steam room are great if you’re trying to get rid of a nasty hangover.

    Funnily enough, logs are sustainable, so greens won't have a problem with that.

    Open campfire outside in the wild near a river or lake. Put a cast iorn Dutch oven into the embers and stew up an auld stew at the side of it.
    Eat the stew with a few beers. This time of year with this sort of weather is perfect for it.

    They are making a song and a dance out of the particle emissions now. I think they're only doing it to be awkward. Fcuk em

    Nice log fire, pishing rain outside, legs well spread and a trickle of sweat running down the gutters. What’s not to like there?

    Not so. They are going on now about particulate pollution from woodstoves, that burning wood still releases carbon and that only coppiced wood is truly sustainable.
