I thought how lucky I was when I collected all the tree wood from hedge cutting days and I bought a couple of trees when a tree surgeon felled them near our house a couple of years ago the woods all stacked up tidy and ready to use all I have to do is cut up a winters supply before winter its lovely and warm and we only use the central heating a couple of hours in the morning and then in the afternoon before I light the wood burner
and as was said about importing wood I helped unload 50 pallets from a sea container the other day of dried kiln wood for our local wood company and that came from Lithuania He's already sold one container load we unloaded in August
a friend of ours had solar panels put on there roof when they built there new build together with some large batteries to store the electricity of the panels a bit of a costly outlay but then they sell the surplus electric to a company
another chap had 6 wind turbines put up in his field and he said its the best thing he ever done every time those blades go round its money in the bank he loves green energy although there was a lot of opposition to the turbines being built at the time that's all fell on deaf ears now
so it looks like the greener we become the more expensive its going to be still that's what we all want because we done away with all the coal fire power stations for a cleaner planet so its no good complaining about the cost or renewable energy
look on the bright side there's plenty of gas in Russia Mr Putin loves selling his Gas to us
