Wood improves for being stacked for between a year and  three years. You can buy wood for much better prices in summer than in late winter when the suppliers know you are desperate.

Now you are teaching your grandmother to suck eggs!

Any one wanting to buy wood in "late winter" would be desperate. But I would have thought that waiting until august is over is early enough. I certainly wouldn't want to be stacking several cubic metres of logs in the heat of july/august - vous etes fou (meant in the nicest possible way)!

Good grief Fantine you do seem to be getting a bit anal about this!

I'm asking now in the hope that someone will be able to help in time for me to buy them in August/September. (Don't fret Fantine, I'll take care in the heat). In fact I probably have enough to see me through most of the winter but I want to stock right up again and I want to reseach a good deal (and the right wood).

Fantine you are right, but, the only wood I would be stocking this Sept is for the start of winter 2006 or beyond.

We have done the buying a month at a time and the wood is often damp. The latest I would have had the wood for winter 2005 stacked was last April and then I would be worried about it being dry enough.
