We are fully booked for log deliveries before Christmas. The diary is open for deliveries in January and February.

It's been AGES since I last posted here. I've been updating some of the information on the website. But while I'm here, I'd better let you know, we only have a few slots left for delivery before our end of year shutdown. ​ Our final delivery day is Saturday 21st December. The office is closed from Sunday 22nd December and doesn't re-open until Saturday 5th January 2020, which is also our first delivery day of the new year.

We can only deliver standard and half loads, because I don't drive with the trailer. It also means each delivery takes longer (I'm having to drive the wheelbarrow as well!), so we can't complete as many deliveries a day as usual. Nick and I

Nick is currently out of action following a chainsaw accident on 3rd February. He is okay but we don't yet know when he'll be back at work. We have some assistance cutting firewood for orders and I am delivering the orders myself. However, I can't deliver as many loads on my own and I can't deliver loads that need the trailer.
