logs are hard work!

I had a day off last week and I had arranged a log delivery from a tree surgeon. The 30 bags of logs were due to arrive between 11.00 and 1.00. At 1.00 I rang to see what had happened to them. I was rung back at 2.00 to be told the guys on the lorry had the morning work down for the afternoon!

New delivery time 4.30 to 6.30. They rung at 5.45 to be tell me they were so far behind they could not deliver that day.

I had today off work so arranged a new delivery time in the afternoon as I had the osteopath in the morning - 1.00 to 4.00. I arrive home just before midday today to find the front garden full of logs!

It took me 5 1/2 hours to get them through the house and stacked (3 trips per sack - 30 sacks).

I knew my new log store wasn't going to take as many logs as the pallet I used to use, but thought the sides would mean no sloping sides so more logs for the ground space. Was disappointed with how much I couldn't fit it. I had some metal grids I use to protect the vegetable beds from cats and foxes, and put those on bricks in front of the store and loaded logs on them.

I will load the picture of the log pile on another post as having problems adding it here!
