for my oven where I want wood that will burn quick I collect from
builder's skips with my bicycle trailer http://www.myplot.org/oven/images/ov/ov36.jpg.
For my wood burning stove at home a neighbour's front garden is used
by a tree surgeon as convenient local dump - as you may or may not
know London has more trees and more green space than your average big
city - the thing is to get enough of wood from right trees stashed
away before summer ready for next winter so it has enough time to get
seasoned. So its a big hassle to do this and clearly not everybody can
or should convert to wood burning in London but it makes sense for me
from quite a few points of view.
