Stop teasing Rick, bet it costs next to nothing to run as well.

Cost of running a chain saw is all, my most expensive outlay is running two cars and washing clothes, Rick

Just op-pend the front door (direct into the lounge) cos it is 27 in here and 7 outside, too early to strip of yet. Rick

In a slightly associated way, I made a wood fired hot tub last year. One night we may have had a beer too many while cooking the water.... Anyway checked temperature of water and it had gone to 42 degrees, oops.
Ideal is 38, had to put two bags of party ice in there before I got naked |

Don't forget the matches you need to light the fire Rick.
I don't have logs. Just pallets |
