Clearing my debts with firewood

firewood Sept 17

A friend has provided us with a huge stock of pigeons this year and we have been giving him jam as payment. However, we felt we were not paying enough so we have handed over a couple of barrow loads of firewood. Some of it came from the branches we have chopped off the hedgerows at the Whinnies, where the hawthorn has got out of control in recent years and is more tree that hedge. The rest of the wood was given to us by a friend who removes waste from people's homes. One of his customers had just had new decking installed so there was a pile of off cuts. Better to burn them for the heat than to put them into a landfill.
