Anyone Lit Their Stoves Yet?

Not yet as it's still on a pallet in the garage waiting for the boat to arrive ;- )

Are the spiders getting delivered in a separate pallet ?

Lit mine Sunday night

That is surely the opposite of what it should do?

A) yes

no

 

Some Northerners are nesh, admittedly.

 

Edit: why on earth does a B followed by a bracket always come up as a face, whether the B is lower or upper case?

 

Because it's the shortcut for that smiley .... you can se the full list if you click on the smiley icon above the typing box and then click on "

25 degrees in Fuerteventura, although I'm not on the boat, that would have been an epic journey.

 

Gonna regret not finishing fitting the stove when I get back.

The beast is and has been on for a few days, Pycloud next door has had theirs on as well .

Nothing delights me more, seeing his boat disappear behind the cloud of smoke wen lighting from cold.

 

Wife has even made a stew already in the oven,

 

Got to find some more damp wood, as I can just make pyclouds boat again.lol

I cleaned and inspected my chimney/flue when I bought boat earlier this year. All good I thought, but after a few fires of smokeless it didn't seem to be drawing as well so I had a look yesterday. Chimney shaped layers of rust held together with soot had peeled off the inside, fallen to the bottom and almost blocked the flue. With the help of a length of water hose I knocked the remaining peeling bits off.

 

Someone had previously fitted additional fire bricks each side of the grate but they were too thin so fitted a pair of engineering bricks either side instead and used one of the thinner fire bricks at the back. Now the fire is all above the grate It's quicker to light, easier to control and I reckon I'm set for the winter.

 

Happy days.

Had our heating on last night and this morning as it was on the chilly side.

 

Now sat with the windows and canopies open as the sun is out and it's got a bit hot.

All my windows have been open since April, but the hatch and stern doors are open wide.

 

 

 

Need another cool beer!

Still only using heat logs to take the chill off or duvet and snuggling on the sofa.

Cats are very good hot water bottles too
