If they become too popular the HMRC, hiding behind anti-smog declarations, will start taxing wood, house chimneys, etc etc

some areas are declared "smoke free" not that this will make any difference post SHTF.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

good point ls , iv heated my home now for over 20yrs for free on scrap wood , the more folk who buy these things will all be looking for free wood and as soon as people see a market for it a price will follow.

this has already started around here , people have had their log piles raided , also oil tanks and red d .

Most residential areas are smoke free - rule of thumb is, if you have mains gas, you will be in a smoke free area. However, if you are a smoke free zone, just buy a DEFRA approved stove.

Dont have a problem collecting scrap pallets, could easily get 15 a day from the couple of factories I have permission from at the moment.
