Nope, you're quite right about the the little oil heater - doesn't look nearly as inviting and romantic as the fire!<br /><br />We've got a wood heater too and it's a lovely cosy heat source. Got my dh turning ours up now because we've just got home and it's chilly out there!

In the past we've collected from fallen trees while out and about and although there were a lot of fallen trees in Auckland this week with the storm, none of them were near enough for us to collect any of the wood!

But when I look at your wood piles I just went, Nah, way too much work.TBH, I think that bottle of red would do a fine job of keeping me warm. ;-)Michelle Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07748538761711892080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-68160854941023877262014-06-13T05:28:57.269+10:002014-06-13T05:28:57.269+10:00Hi Sue

Enjoy that fire and wine<br /><br />Have Fun<br />HelenHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03984438742736003285noreply@blogger.com
