The bonfire

 7 Feb 2021

There has been a pile of old wood at the end of the garden for about two years.  It is wood that is no good for the stove or the garden: treated or varnished, rotten pallets, chipboard or plywood.  As we had friends here liming the house (needs doing every year, and we’re not so nimble on ladders as we were) we thought we could usefully take ourselves off down the garden and finally get started on the scruffy heap.

Part of the heap

Including old garden furniture.  This is the last of the outdoor sofas from the Biblos Bar of legend that was in Nidri High Street
Fluffy caterpillar rescue service.  It was heading into the fire pit when I spotted it.

Some of the wood was good enough to give away, and we invited Robbie round to collect it, so he was there for the ceremonial chainsawing up of the Last Sofa!

We shared a drink with Robbie, and a picnic lunch down the garden, and a good time was had by all.
