A new hatchet!

Post by Mallard »

Bought a hatchet for £4.50 from our local market, to assist me dismantle stubborn pallets. :shock:
Then it occured to me I could also chop up all those bits and blocks into kindling, bag them up and sell them for a few pence over the lottie's (8 foot) fence!
Seeing the price of kindling in Bees and Queues, I should get a few takers, and get rid of the bits without a bonfire! )c(

I should say so and the cutting will warm you up and keep you fit(ter). )j;
